THE history of first baptist rome

In May of this year First Baptist will celebrate our 190th year of serving the Rome community. Below are articles authored by members of our church and History Committee that bring to life the rich history of FBC Rome. They have also been hard at work to digitize books written by Robert G. Gardner and Judson Moss that capture the history of our beloved church from inception until 2010. Click on an image below to access each book in PDF form.
