The photos above are the 2nd church building that was built on the same corner of 9th & Jackson.
First Baptist Church relocated to its present location, 3033 SW MacVicar Ave, in the late 1960s. It was dedicated in May of 1970. A gymnasium and additional classrooms were added in October of 2002.

The First Baptist Church of Topeka loves the Topeka community. The church supports many local and international ministries, organizations, and community support groups.
