Hopewell Baptist Church

About this church

Hopewell Baptist Church begins Bible Fellowship at 9:45 a.m. and worship at 10:45 Sunday at 5061 Hopewell Road in rural New Kent. Guests can sit in the new worship center, listen from the parking lot on 104.5 FM, or watch through Facebook Live. During the offering music, leaders and youth helpers escort children who choose kidWELL to classrooms for the sermon portion. Wednesday prayer meets at 7 p.m., and the singWELL music group meets Thursday at 7.

Hopewell identifies as a Southern Baptist congregation and seeks to combine worship, fellowship, community love, leadership development, and outreach. It was organized in May 1842 when 120 members of Black Creek Baptist Church met at the Hopewell Meeting House; the official history notes that early records are incomplete because church and courthouse fires destroyed evidence. Student ministry for grades six through twelve now emphasizes the 9:45 Sunday Bible study in place of former weekly Sunday-evening meetings, while retaining monthly gatherings, service projects, retreats, and student-led fifth-Sunday worship. That current ministry notice is more reliable than older footer listings that still show weekly evening times. A family can attend the learning hour and worship back-to-back, choose the building, parking-lot audio, or livestream, and verify the next student gathering separately rather than arriving for a discontinued weekly slot.
