General Info

West Side Baptist Church is located on the corner of Fourth Street and Fillmore Street in downtown Topeka, Kansas. We are a member of American Baptist Churches USA American Baptists are a Christ-centered, biblically grounded, ethnically diverse people called to radical personal discipleship in Christ Jesus. Our commitment to Jesus propels us to nurture authentic relationships with one another ; build healthy churches ; transform our communities, our nations and our world ; engage every member in hands-on ministry ; and speak the prophetic word in love. As a people of prayer, purpose, and passion, we are in the forefront of creating a community of faith where people of every race, nationality and culture gather as one in worship, service and work. The heart of the gospel is God's redemptive love. In our life together, the world will see the power of forgiveness to overcome alienation, the strength of love to transform hate, the power of grace to break the bonds of guilt, the triumph of hope over despair, and the victory of faith over doubt.
