About this church

Independent Presbyterian Church in Birmingham follows a summer Sunday schedule with traditional sanctuary worship at 10:00 a.m. and the Table service in Highland Hall at 5:00 p.m.; the morning service is livestreamed. Communion is celebrated on the first Sunday of each month in morning worship and weekly at the evening Table service. Summer nursery care is available from 9:00 to 11:00 for children from six weeks through kindergarten age, and preschool children may leave the 10:00 service for worship care. Children of every age are also welcome to remain in the sanctuary.

IPC marks a century of worship while maintaining substantial community ministries. Its current outreach includes a food pantry, Blessing Box, summer learning, and PEER programs serving Birmingham families. Children’s ministry emphasizes Scripture, prayer, service, and questions, while youth gather for Sunday faith formation, dinner, service projects, and discussion. Child and youth volunteers follow a formal protection policy. For newcomers, the congregation offers contrasting traditional and evening worship settings, frequent Communion, livestream access, supervised care for young children, and a visible network of neighborhood services based at the Highland Avenue campus.
