About Us
Garfield Park Baptist Church formed in 1913 on Indianapolis' near Southside. Like all churches, we've experienced many changes, significant ups and downs.
We sold our building at 1061 E. Southern Ave and are now sharing a building with St. Andrew United Methodist Church at 2560 Villa Ave. We feel that God ted us to this wonderful opportunity to worship with St. Andrew. We are still a Baptist church and St Andrew is still a Methodist church.
We have a shared worship service that combines both the Baptist traditions as well as the Methodist traditions. We enjoy combined activities such as pitch-in luncheons and other activities. This merging Of the two denominations has been prayers answered for both churches.
We believe
Certain things remain true for us:
Senior Pastor
Eric previously served as Senior Pastor at St. Andrew and has returned as Senior Pastor as he serves in retirement. He is now serving both Garfield Park Baptist and St. Andrew combined worship.
He has served churches throughout Indiana in his 29 years of ministry. He leads our weekly bible study, provides pastoral care, and preaches regularly.
