In January 1986, the Lord led David and Anne Byford to Manhattan, Kansas, to start Faith baptist Church. In October of that year, the church officially organized in a charter service and called David Byford to be their pastor.

Faith Baptist Church has always tried to put an emphasis on the Bible. Faith has consistently tried to bring people to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ and has geared its ministries to help people grow in their Christian faith.

Throughout the years, God has been so good in providing the needs of Faith Baptist Church.
