Here is a list of the pastors who have served First Baptist Church

The Early Years

The beginnings of First Baptist Church are hard to pinpoint exactly, but some facts basic to its establishment tell us that sometime in 1904, Levi Johnson moved to Craig, and in February 1905, his wife and children joined him. They homesteaded at Illinois Park , at the foot of Black Mountain near Craig. Mrs. Amy Johnson taught in various schools around the county, so they kept a home in Craig during the winter and returned to the ranch each spring. Their town residence is located in the 500 block of Breeze Street , and is still in use.

Rev W.C. Lindsey, a Baptist minister from Missouri , moved to Northwest Colorado in 1909. He filed on a homestead near Cedar Mt .in Moffat County

Ernest Kline became his neighbor in 1910, when he established his homestead also near Cedar Mt.
