Welcome

Welcome to Ginter Park Baptist Church. We are a ninety-year old congregation with youthful vigor and a great hope for the future. Our membership is seniors and young couples, single adults and generation spanning families. Our worship style draws upon the wide traditions of our faith and includes the classical expressions of faith as our mainstay. Children are a vital part of our programming and our worship. Preaching and teaching seek to be inclusive of people from the fullness of Gods’ realm.

We are located one block south of the intersection of Laburnum Avenue and Brook Road in the Ginter Park area of Richmond Virginia. Our neighborhood is the historic north side of Richmond with beautiful tree lined streets and seventy-five to one hundred year old houses. Our close neighbors include The Baptist Seminary at Richmond, Union Presbyterian Seminary and school of Christian Education and Virginia Union University.

Thank you for visiting Ginter Park Baptist Church, at least our web page. While our web page is under construction, you may find some “holes” in it. These will be “filled in” as we can.
