Our History

First Baptist Church of Wolfeboro was organized in 1792. Our current church was built in 1840.

Our Pastor

Pastor Steve Wuori was born and raised in New England. Son to a sheet-metal worker and housewife, he was the first in his family to graduate from college.

Before God converted him at age 27, Steve worked in financial services in Boston. He is married to Veronica, and the Lord has blessed them with four children.

Steve and Veronica were missionaries for 11 years in the Amazon jungle of Ecuador, where Steve planted churches among two different indigenous groups. He also built an elementary school there, while Veronica drafted the documents to legally register the school with Ecuador’s Department of Education. The family later relocated to Ecuador’s capital city, where Steve served as a licensed preacher in a United Reform Church and the administrative director of an international Christian school.

Prior to his arrival at First Baptist Church, Steve served as pastor of a rural church and headmaster of a Christian school, both in New Hampshire. He has served as our pastor since May 2025.

Steve loves the Reformers, Puritans, and Pilgrims, and the contributions these groups made to further Christ’s kingdom. His doctrine is Reformed: Calvinist, Covenantal, and Confessional. If you speak Spanish, you can check out his YouTube channel “Libre Gracia.”
