Forward Church

About this church

Forward Church is a Christian congregation in the Uptown area of downtown New Albany, Indiana, with a concise purpose: worship God and make disciples. Its Sunday gathering combines contemporary family worship with Bible teaching, while the wider ministry model is designed to equip every age to understand and live Scripture. ForKids provides secure check-in and separate environments from nursery age through elementary school, using age-specific Answers in Genesis and other Bible curricula. Propel serves middle-school students after the worship portion of Sunday service and high-school students on Wednesday evenings. The church also observes the Lord’s Supper together on the second Sunday of each month.

Sunday worship begins at 10:30 a.m. and is streamed online. Forward describes the environment as friendly and contemporary, with no dress code; several parking spaces nearest the building are reserved for visitors. The church is easy to identify at 341 Vincennes Street across from Walgreens. Families should allow extra time for children’s check-in, while middle-school households can plan for students to transition to Propel after congregational worship. High-school Propel meets Wednesday at 6:30 p.m. This is a practical option for people seeking one intergenerational Sunday service, a strong emphasis on biblical formation, and clearly separated ministries for young children, middle schoolers, and high schoolers.
