UPDATE ON 19TH STREET BAPTIST CHURCH
 

On June 20, 2025, we began the demolition of our historic sanctuary at 1253 South 19th Street. That phase is now complete. The beloved building that stood for over a century—where generations worshiped, prayed, married, wept, and celebrated

—is gone. Yet, the Church lives on.

​

Our Fellowship Hall still stands as a visible reminder of God’s faithfulness, a standing symbol of continuity, community, and mission. While this moment brings real grief, it also stirs great expectation. We look back with gratitude for all God has done and look ahead with faith, trusting that He is not finished with Nineteenth Street Baptist Church.

“Unless a grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it remains alone. But if it dies, it produces much fruit.” – John 12:24
