Cultural Arts Treasures
First Baptist Church of Lincoln Gardens
First Baptist Church of Lincoln Gardens exists today as a branch of the great tradition of African American Baptist Churches. While building upon the black church tradition, First Church is also expanding its reach into communities that are well beyond the traditional constituency of the black church. The focus of First Church is to provide a three dimensional ministry that nurtures spiritual growth, supports academic excellence and promotes economic empowerment. The church is also a cultural hub for many performing arts including a Teen Choir, Praise Ensemble and Dance program which include Ballet, Jazz, Tap & Latin dance. For more information please call (732) 247-0444, ext. 1015 or 1019.
