First Baptist Church of Wetumpka
First Baptist Church of Wetumpka, Gothic Revival Baptist church in Wetumpka, Alabama.
The church complex includes several connected buildings with the original brick sanctuary constructed between 1846 and 1852 at 205 West Bridge Street.
The congregation originated from Coosa River Baptist Church in 1821 and moved to Wetumpka in 1837, merging with another congregation before adopting its current name.
Women of the congregation led fundraising efforts through bake sales and picnics to complete the original sanctuary construction, demonstrating early community involvement.
The church holds Sunday worship services at 10:15 AM and offers online streaming options for those who cannot attend in person.
The original sanctuary suffered extensive damage from a 2019 tornado, leading to the removal of historic stained glass windows and artifacts in 2020.
