Crescent Hill Baptist Church

About this church

Crescent Hill Baptist Church is a progressive, inclusive Louisville congregation rooted in Baptist freedom, the love of Jesus, justice, and community discernment. It explicitly welcomes people across race, ability, finances, marital status, gender identity, and sexual orientation, supports women in ordained ministry, and includes seekers from several religious backgrounds. Worship joins choir, pipe organ, hymns, acoustic music, Scripture, preaching, and open Communion.

Sunday School begins at 9:30 a.m., followed by in-person and online worship at 10:45. Communion is normally celebrated on the first Sunday and is open to everyone. Childcare starts at 9:30; at 10:40, birth-through-three and preschool classes open. Elementary children begin in the sanctuary, take part in a children’s moment, and then leave for age-appropriate learning. Children may also remain throughout worship. The most accessible entrance is from the Fellowship Hall parking lot through the alley shared with St. Mark’s Episcopal Church. Some exterior doors lock about fifteen minutes after worship starts, so late arrivals may need another entrance. Visitors can join a Sunday School group through the Birchwood Avenue entrance and coffee area, or arrive before 10:45 for the single weekly service.
