Founded on June 17, 1902, First Baptist Church of Quindaro has been a cornerstone of the Kansas City, Kansas, community for over a century. Affiliated with the Kaw Valley District Baptist Association, the Missionary Baptist State Convention of Kansas, and the National Baptist Convention, U.S.A., Inc., our mission is to serve “This Present Age” while upholding timeless values of justice, truth, and love.
The New Testament guides our faith and practices.
We observe Believer’s Baptism and the Lord’s Supper monthly.
We aspire to a faith that is as just as the prophets, as compassionate as Christ, and as enduring as the Ancient of Days.
Rev. Dr. Gladdis brings decades of dedication, leadership, and spiritual insight to our church. From leading prayer meetings and teaching Bible study to managing community initiatives, Rev. Gladdis exemplifies service to God and the congregation.
With advanced degrees in theology and a lifetime of professional and personal achievements, his teachings inspire us to embrace the promises of God wholeheartedly.
