Meet Our Pastor

At First Baptist Church, we are blessed to be led by Pastor Steve Priola, who has faithfully served our congregation for over four decades. Pastor Steve began his journey with us as a youth pastor in 1980, and in January of 1997, he was called to serve as the senior pastor.

Steve and his wife, Gloria, have built a strong family foundation. They are proud parents to two sons: Ryan, who is married to Hailey, and together they have three wonderful children—Ella, Wyatt, and Cullen; and Cody, who is married to Laurel, and their family includes two sons, Noah and Drew.
