First Baptist Church, Kingston is a historic church at 4600 Ninth Avenue North in Birmingham, Alabama. It was built in 1961 and added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2005.[1] The congregation was organized in 1930, it was led by George W. Dickerson from 1941 to 1972, it played a leading role in the Civil Rights Movement and served as a site for mass meetings held by the Alabama Christian Movement for Human Rights. The church is now surrounded by a public housing project erected in the late 1950s.[2]
In 2000, the congregation relocated to a new building at 4240 Ninth Avenue North and sold this structure the next year to Lighthouse Church Ministries.
