Brown Memorial Park Avenue Presbyterian Church

Brown Memorial Park Avenue Presbyterian Church is a spiritually rich home that is alive in the city and the world.

The church weathered more than a few storms in Baltimore’s history to become the thriving, urban, progressive community of faith that we are today. We believe that faith is best built on a foundation of intellectual curiosity, and spiritual openness to a diversity of ideas and people who hold them. Committed to building one community out of the raw material of our city’s many divisions, our justice-oriented church strives to live out our faith, beginning with the warm and welcoming culture that we strive to create together.

We’ve worked hard to build relationships across our city and pursue justice in our personal and public life. These relationships take many forms. Some of them are ministries run within our congregation like our Tutoring Program which celebrated 60 years in 2024. Others are partnerships with sister organizations in the city like BUILD (Baltimoreans United In Leadership Development). 

We also believe cross-cultural partnerships enrich our understanding of God. Over the years we have lived into several deep partnerships that remind us of the privileges and responsibilities of our place in the global community. We believe in the principles of accompaniment, authentic relationships and walking alongside our partners with mutual respect.
