About Friendship Baptist Church

Friendship Baptist Church has served as a spiritual and social anchor in Schenectady since its formal establishment in 1919, standing as one of the oldest and most influential African American congregations in the region. Located at 407 Union Street, the church has occupied its historic building since 1956, marking a significant period of growth and stability for the community. Under the visionary leadership of Pastor William L. Hamilton and First Lady Nicole Hamilton, the congregation is committed to a transformational vision that meets the spiritual needs of the twenty-first century while honoring the traditions that built the church. Beyond its religious services, Friendship Baptist is widely recognized for its deep commitment to social outreach and community advocacy. The church welcomes everyone to discover the love of Christ and join a supportive family as they grow together in faith, offering multiple ways to engage through choir, various ministries, and regular fellowship opportunities.
