Who We Are

First Church of God is a Christ-centered congregation committed to worshiping God, growing in His Word, and serving others with love. Since 1917, we have been blessed to share the hope of Jesus Christ with the Toledo community and beyond. We are a church family where people of all ages can grow in faith, build meaningful relationships, and discover opportunities to serve.

Our Beliefs

We believe:

  • The Bible is the inspired, authoritative Word of God.

  • That there is only one God, eternally existent in three persons: the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

  • In the deity of Christ, His virgin birth and sinless life, His atoning death, His bodily resurrection, His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and His eminent return.

  • In the present ministry of the Holy Spirit.

  • In the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ.

Mission Statement

We celebrate in worship together, witness everywhere to reconcile persons to Christ, disciple every convert to spiritual maturity, train and involve all in ministry to one another and the world to the glory of God.

Vision Statement

Our task is to reach Non-Christians of all ages through ministries that address urban needs,  to radically change the lifestyle of people to the glory of God.
