The First Baptist Church of Mansfield (FBCM) is a small-town church with a long history. Established in 1807, we are located in Mansfield, CT, also home to the University of Connecticut. Half of our church family lives within 5 miles of our worship center, while the rest travel a distance to participate in church activities. Blessed with church family and friends of diverse cultural backgrounds, educational levels, and political beliefs, we are a family through our shared love of God.
Our current active membership is mostly older, with half of our members retired and 40% of our members having a yearly income of over $100,000. Our church has a wide variety of talents, with approximately half our members involved in teaching or office work. In contrast, others include engineers, therapists, human resource officers, and IT folk (to name a few). Since COVID restrictions were lifted, we average about 20 people in church on Sunday, with several others watching online.
