Both church buildings were used until 1954 when the membership voted to use the former First Baptist Church, our current home on Merrimack Street, exclusively. Erected in 1858, its beautiful, illuminated spire rises up over the village of Penacook and serves as a town landmark. According to the architects, the
basic style of this building is Greek Revival. The top of the spire around the bell
tower is more Baroque and the arches over the windows are Romanesque.
Today this fellowship continues to grow and flourish. Our facilities include a sanctuary with seating for 300 people. The large fellowship hall is used for various activities including Sunday School, the soup kitchen, and church suppers. It also serves the needs of our local Boy Scout and Girl Scout troops and other community services.
To continue these services to the community, we must renovate and improve our facilities.
