Forest Park Community
Church
The city can be a cold and difficult place to live. But at Forest Park Community Church we know that God loves the city, and He has elect even in the toughest neighborhoods. He has called the Church to be a light in the midst of the crime, broken homes, and ghetto nihilism which makes up the core of America’s cities. Baltimore is one of those cities. We have been in this community for 100 years marveling at the faithfulness of God to His word. When our original denomination saw the need for an evangelical church in this community faithful believers committed them selves to the call. Years later, when blue collar and middle class blacks began to move into the community, the white believers of Forest Park said, “we will minister to whomever God sends to us”, and they stayed while others fled the city. While many were abandoning the urban landscape for the suburbs, Forest Park became a model of how the gospel can function as the glue that holds together a racially diverse congregation. Today Forest Park is a predominantly African American congregation, but we are committed to sharing the love of Christ with whomever He sends to us. If you are looking for a church home please come worship with us. questions?:webmaster@forestparkcc.org
