Welcome

We welcome you and thank you for logging on to www.firstsarasota.org, your online connection to FirstSarasota, the Downtown Baptist Church.

Throughout its more than 100 years of ministry, FirstSarasota has attempted to be faithful to the vision of its founders, namely, to honor the Lord Jesus Christ and to make His name known to all of the greater Sarasota area...and beyond! Today, we are the stewards of this great purpose and vision. As lead pastor, I pledge all of my efforts and leadership to fulfill our God-given calling as a worshiping, proclaiming, discipling, and ministering fellowship.

Whether you're a first-time visitor, or a member, we are excited that you are "connecting" with us, and hope that you find all of the information you are seeking. If there is something you are seeking that you do not find on this website, just email us and we will seek to answer your questions. Please let us know how we can be of service to you!

Please worship with us this weekend!

Thanks for making a difference,

Lead Pastor Bill (with wife Beverly & son Will)
