===The first permanent home===
[[Image:FMC-first.jpg|thumb|left|100px|The first permanent church building]]
In [[1827]], a lot on the northeast corner of [[Tarragona Street|Tarragona]] and [[Intendencia Street]]s was purchased, and a permanent home for the church was built, with the first services held on [[June 2]], [[1828]]. Several months prior, on [[February 14]], [[1828]], Rev. [[Isaac Boring]] had been appointed to take over the church from Rev. Hardy; Rev. Boring arrived in Pensacola on [[March 12]] and sold his horse to Rev. Hardy for $100, so that Rev. Hardy would have transportation to his next destination.
