Wedgwood Community Church
American Baptists
The one and a half million members and nearly six thousand congregations of American Baptist Churches USA around the world share a common tradition that began more than three hundred years ago.
That tradition has emphasized the Lordship and atoning sacrifice of Jesus Christ, the competency of all believers to be in direct relationship with God and to interpret Scripture, the importance of the local church, the assurance of freedom in worship and opinion, and the need to be Christ’s witnesses within society.
We invite you to familiarize yourself with the following documents that tell of the traditions and practices of American Baptists.
