Mount Olive Baptist Church

About this church

At 400 Arlington Avenue in Jersey City, Mount Olive Baptist Church begins its principal Sunday worship at 11 a.m. Its weekly schedule also includes Bible study at 7 p.m. Tuesday, prayer at 7 p.m. Thursday, and a noon prayer gathering Friday. The congregation calls itself the Church of Love and the Holy Spirit, signaling an emphasis on warm relationships, prayer, and active spiritual life. Sunday remains the main public gathering, while the three weekday options let visitors encounter teaching and prayer in smaller settings.

Mount Olive's ministries include music, youth, deacons, deaconesses, and other roles that support worship and care for the congregation. The Mass Choir contributes to the church's musical life, and youth ministry helps younger people form relationships and grow in Christian faith. Deacons and deaconesses provide practical and spiritual support, especially around membership, worship, and seasons of need. The church's about material presents a Baptist community rooted in Jersey City and committed to sharing Christ through both proclamation and care. A newcomer can begin with 11 a.m. Sunday, then use Tuesday Bible study if looking for a discussion-oriented next step or Thursday and Friday for prayer. Because the official site is served over an older HTTP connection, visitors may see a browser security notice even though the directory link matches the congregation. Special services should be confirmed directly before travel.
