University Heights Baptist Church

About this church

University Heights Baptist Church is a Springfield congregation that describes grace as something lived, not merely discussed. Its ministry language emphasizes deep thinking, compassion, shared leadership by women and men, and building bridges that connect people to life in Christ. Adult Life Groups, children and student ministries, music, midweek study, community service, and online worship give people several ways to move from a Sunday visit into relationships and practice.

Sunday Life Groups begin at 9:15 a.m., with adult classes upstairs and age-based rooms for babies through twelfth grade. Coffee and doughnuts are available before worship at 10:30. The service blends traditional and contemporary music with a biblical message; children join their families for the first portion and then may leave for Children’s Church in the third-floor Treehouse. Wednesday dinner begins at 5:45 p.m. Adult, children’s, and youth Bible studies start at 6:30, followed by choir rehearsal at 6:45. The church’s site contains a few visible website-template placeholders in nonessential ministry sections, but its published schedule and room directions are specific. First-time families can use the floor information to plan ahead and should check the current newsletter or bulletin for seasonal midweek changes.
