The First Baptist Church buildings face W. Ash and extend from 9th Street to 10th Street. A large parking area lies across Ash to the south. The buildings are constructed of buff brick. On the east side, a three-story Christian Education Center contains classrooms and meetings rooms. On the west, a Family Life Center is the hub of many of the church's activities.

The worship center at the center has a steep gabled roof with a tall arched facade. A three-segmented stained glass area fills the arch, with the figure of Christ and the words Come Unto Me. The main entrance has three sets of double doors. A tall bell tower stands at the entrance.

Weekly services are held on Sundays at 10:15 a.m. and 6:00 p.m., with Sunday School at 9:00 a.m. On Wednesdays, beginning at 6:00 p.m., the church is active, with prayer groups, choir practice, and youth activities. The church is active in missions and other ministries and their website offers details of all these activities. A Child Development Center offers child care Monday thru Friday from 6 weeks to Grade 5.
