Welcome to our family: Webster Groves Baptist Church has been vital part of the Webster Community since 1913. Our congregation continues today seeking to be Christ’s church in a changing community and world. Our Mission Statement reflects who we are and where we are going as a people:
We are an autonomous congregation of Baptist Christians worshiping God and ministering together as disciples of Jesus Christ. Our mission is to equip every member to faithfully share the gospel of Jesus Christ with our community and world.
Our ministry and mission efforts extend into the community and around the world through our cooperation and affiliation with the Cooperative Baptist Fellowship and CBF of Missouri:. We are also involved in ecumenical ministries through participation in the Friendship International Ministry, Webster/Rock Hill Ministries and others.
