Greater New Hope Baptist Church

About this church

Greater New Hope Baptist Church in Selma meets on Sunday mornings, with Sunday School at 9:30 AM in the sanctuary and the worship service at 10:15 AM. The service opens with a devotion and moves through congregational singing, music from the choir, an offertory prayer at the altar, preaching from the Bible, and an invitation to those who do not yet know Christ. Guests are acknowledged, upcoming events are shared, and the service closes with a benediction. On the first Sunday of each month the congregation observes the Lord's Supper. The site says worship normally runs about two and a half hours. A Bible study meets on Wednesdays at 6:30 PM.

The church lists a range of ministries, including an adult choir, deacon and deaconess ministries, hospitality, ushers, missions, a youth ministry, the Stephen Ministry, a pastor aid ministry, INCW, and a fitness center. The congregation began in 1998 in a former storefront and laundromat building on US Highway 80 East, where it still meets at 4955 US Highway 80 East.

First-time visitors can expect greeters at the door, a parking lot with plenty of spaces, and handicap-accessible parking and entry. Wearing a mask or gloves is optional. Service times can change, so confirm them on the church website or by calling (334) 875-1005 before visiting.
