About Brandywine Valley Baptist Church

CHURCH DESCRIPTION:  Brandywine Valley Baptist Church is a “lighthouse” to their neighbors in Wilmington and the greater Brandywine Valley. As such, they emphasize missional living and constantly strive to build gospel partnerships in the city. The church takes seriously its mission to introduce people to Jesus Christ and help them follow him. This congregation has a reputation for being a place that is warm, welcoming, and family-friendly. Those who visit here find it easy to get connected in close-knit relationships if they want to be. So many have had this experience at Brandywine that they are known in the community as the place to go for kids and families. Before COVID-19, the church averaged around 800 adults in worship, with an additional 300-400 kids, making their typical weekend attendance 1100-1200 people.

The worship experiences at Brandywine Valley include a modern and a traditional expression, both with a Bible-based message. A worship leader and band lead the modern service featuring modern worship songs and contemporary hymns. In contrast, a worship choir or one of several ensembles leads the traditional experience featuring hymns and anthems. They’ve recently invested heavily in upgrading technology to enhance both the live and online experience.
