Welcome to St. John’s Baptist Church of Charlotte, North Carolina.

St. John’s offers a distinct church experience. It is one that draws on tradition but also embraces change and is open to new visions for our path as followers of Jesus. Indeed, since 1922, our historic church has grown and evolved as the city of Charlotte has grown and evolved around it.

We love, value, and celebrate everyone. And we work hard to meet the social and spiritual needs we encounter inside our walls, in our neighborhood, and across our city. Our mission is to embrace and express God’s inclusive compassion and continue the ministry of Jesus.

As St. John’s, we are committed to God, to each other and we are committed to you.

Join us for worship on Sunday mornings in-person in the Sanctuary or online at 10:30am.
