As disciples of Jesus, Ginter Park Baptist Church seeks to live in such a way that our individual lives and our shared life together reflect the life of Christ in the world. With the help of the Holy Spirit, each of us thus commits to:
Practice radical acceptance and welcome of all persons;
Build relationships among ourselves and throughout our community;
Serve our Richmond neighbors and the wider world;
Engage in learning as a lifelong pursuit;
Operate with a culture of generosity;
Be accountable to one another;
Live our lives as a conversation with God in a commitment to personal spiritual practices;
and Extend grace to ourselves, to one another, and to all those whose paths we cross whenever we fall short of our pursuit to love God with our whole selves and our neighbor as ourselves.
At Ginter Park Baptist Church, our Rule of Life states that we are committed to practicing “radical acceptance and welcome of all persons, affirming them as created in the image of God and as beloved of God.” This means that we welcome and value people of every race, gender assigned at birth, gender expression, gender identity, sexual orientation, marital status, age, physical and mental ability, national origin, economic station, and political ideology to full participation in the life of our community. This includes serving in all areas of leadership, receiving Holy Communion, Baptism, Marriage, and Ordination.
