A People of Love, Light, Life & Liberation

Welcome to Twelfth Baptist Church

Welcome to Twelfth Baptist Church!

 

We are thrilled to have you join our vibrant community. I am Rev. Willie Bodrick, II, and it is my joy to lead this historic congregation that has been a beacon of faith for 185 years and 220 years since the First African Baptist Church of Boston.

 

Here at Twelfth Baptist Church, we are committed to dynamic preaching, insightful teaching, and engaging with our community through the love of the Gospel.

​

As you settle in, I encourage you to explore our ministries and connect with fellow members. Together, we will grow in faith and fellowship, making a positive impact both locally and beyond.

We Believe in One God

We believe in one God, the sovereign Creator and sustainer of all things, infinitely perfect and eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

 

To Him are all honor, glory, and praise forever.
