We are so thrilled you’re thinking of visiting our church. We’re an American Baptist Church (although God doesn’t really care what denomination you are!) that’s 149 years old. We started in Philadelphia on Broad Street in the Baptist Temple building, that is now Temple Performing Arts Center. Our church founded Temple University. We’ve been in Blue Bell for 45 years now, and are still finding ways of bringing God’s kingdom to earth.

We are a friendly church family that welcomes new members; come see if it’s right for you.

We are meeting virtually now, due to the pandemic. Contact us at staff@gbcbb.org for the details on how to join any of these:

Bringing God’s Love to the World

Come be a part of a church that reaches out to the community to find ways to serve, and bring God’s love to others. Your talents are needed. Here are a small sample of various ways we work in the community.

• Hospitality Network – we are one of several churches in the area that open their doors to the homeless
• Faith In Action – we close the doors one Sunday and have several projects we do in the community–from cleaning the flower beds at a nearby elementary school, to landscaping work at a township park, to clean-up from the local community festival, serving breakfast in needy neighbors, hosting a meal for local firemen/policemen
• CCATE – one of our members has a nonprofit in Norristown that helps serve the Latino community in Norristown with education, art and other services, our members volunteer here
• Norristown Breakfast – Once a quarter we make and serve breakfast in an area where it’s needed
• Reach – Nearly every summer a group of teenagers and adults work with the Reach organization. This nonprofit gathers teenagers across the country to various communities where elderly, disabled, and disadvantaged people have their homes repaired, repainted, porches, and ramps built during an intense one-week experience.
