Our Founding (1957–1959)
In 1957, several families in Bountiful, who were members of the First Baptist Church in Salt Lake City, passionately advocated for a church in their own community. Dr. Fenwick Fowler, the pastor of the Salt Lake First Baptist Church, envisioned this extension church and tasked Warren Vinz, hired as Associate Minister in 1957, with organizing a congregation in Bountiful.


Building Our Church Home
On September 14, 1957, First Baptist Church held its inaugural meeting in Bountiful as a mission church, with around 100 members gathering at South Davis Junior High School. This marked the birth of Bountiful First Baptist Church. Excitement filled the air as they secured property on Orchard Drive, anticipating future city growth. Groundbreaking ceremonies on November 3, 1957, saw over 100 attendees. Church members dedicated evenings to construction, and on May 17, 1959, they proudly moved into their new church home.
Growing in Community
The original charter, signed by 32 members, grew over the years, welcoming 497 individuals into the church family by 2010. This thriving congregation became a cherished community for many, with ministers echoing that it was the best church they had ever served.
