First Missionary Baptist
First Missionary Baptist Church is a vibrant house of worship with a long and distinguish history. Dating as a congregation to 1853, to its establishment as an independent church in 1865 and its period as a "Hush Harbor" , through the construction of its existing building in 1890, First Missionary has been a central pillar of the African American community in Thomasville, Georgia for nearly160 years.
​
EAM Preservation has been commissioned to create a comprehensive historic structure report on the building, its developmental history, its character defining features and recommendations for preservation.
​
We look forward to discovering the secrets this old building holds and contributing to the preservation of this important cultural landmark.
