Broad Street Presbyterian Church

Broad Street Presbyterian Church Welcome to Broad Street Presbyterian Church, a downtown Columbus church with sacred worship, rich tradition, and open welcome. Welcome To Broad Street!

We invite honest questions around the mystery of faith. As an intentionally inclusive community, you’ll find belonging here. We seek to be a community where together we explore what it means to seek God in this time and place. We are a multi-generational Christian community that seeks to provide a safe place for spiritual rejuvenation and service to the world. Like most church congregations, we wo

rship, study, pray and care for one another. Our passion is working together to try to make the world a better place. By doing tangible, concrete things that improve people’s lives, we honor God and live out what Jesus means when he says, “Love God and love your neighbor.”

If that resonates with you, we hope you’ll check us out online or in person!

*Strong Foundation*
Broad Street Church has been a church home to thousands of families since 1887. With a heart for helping the community of Columbus, Ohio, and reaching the next generation, we look forward to continuing to change lives in the Columbus area for years to come. BSPC invites you and your family to come experience worship. Join us at one of our weekly services or call us for more information.

*Committed To Social Justice*
Broad Street has been involved in advocacy for justice for as long as most of us can remember. We have sought to provide education and clear avenues for our members and friends to have their voices heard on a variety of issues: homelessness, gun violence, immigration, affordable health care, fair trade, energy policy, racial equality, and public education. Consistent with who we are, we seek to listen and learn before we act, and in all of our work, to show respect for the views of others.

*Family Focus*
Broad Street Church is committed to being a church for the whole family. With LifeGroups and services that teach biblical and family values, BSPC has a place where you and your family can connect and grow. We welcome every generation as well as people from all walks of life to join us and experience BSPC.

*Beliefs*
We believe in and worship the God of power and mystery and love who actively seeks to have a relationship with every one of us. We believe that God’s love – reflected and revealed in the life, death and resurrection of Jesus – is the most powerful force in the world. We believe that there is nothing we have done that can separate us from God’s love. We believe God offers new beginnings and second chances. We believe God takes initiative in our lives, challenging and comforting us in unexpected ways.

*Values*
BSPC’s values are rooted in Jesus’ command to love God and love neighbor. BSPC seeks to honor and affirm persons of every gender identity and sexual orientation. As it pertains to all levels of leadership in the church, it has been the policy of BSPC since 2000 to honor and affirm the spiritual gifts of everyone in our faith community, particularly people who have been historically marginalized and may easily be overlooked by the church. Broad Street is a church that has worked hard to create a community where the gifts of all people are welcomed and utilized.

They ended where mountains meet the clouds.

In their final days in Peru, the BSPC team journeyed through the Sacred Valley and visited Machu Picchu, where they learned about the architecture, history, and traditions of the Inca People and the deep relationship with Mother Earth that continues to shape the lives of Indigenous communities today.

The team made it back home safely to Columbus, grateful for the experiences shared with our partners in Peru and for the many ways God was encountered along the journey. 💙🙏🏼

In Moyobamba, they encountered new signs of that hope.

They learned how young people are protecting Indigenous lands using drones and satellite technology, and experienced a beautiful full-circle moment by visiting a school for the deaf that Broad Streeters helped break ground for in 2018.

Seeing the school completed and thriving, and spending time with students by the river, reminded the team that relationships planted years ago continue to bear fruit.

Continue traveling with the team in prayer as they spend their final days in Peru, journeying through the Sacred Valley and Machu Picchu. 🌄 🇵🇪

Juneteenth reminds us that freedom delayed is still worth celebrating and that God’s work of liberation continues.

Many of us were never taught this history in school or in church. Learning the truth, telling the story, and celebrating freedom are sacred work. Juneteenth echoes a story Christians know well: a God who hears the cries of the oppressed and calls us toward justice and freedom for all.

Today, we give thanks for those who endured, those who resisted, and those who continue to labor for a more just world.

How are you honoring Juneteenth today? 🖤❤️💚

They began beside a memorial called "The Eye That Cries."

The Broad Street Peru Team arrived safely and spent their first days in Lima listening, learning, and deepening relationships with our partners.

At "El Ojo que Llora", a memorial honoring those lost during Peru's years of violence, the group heard powerful stories of loss, resilience, and the ongoing struggle for justice.

Later, they walked along the Pacific Ocean, carrying those stories with them and reflecting on what it means to accompany one another with hope.

Last Sunday, we celebrated Pride in Worship.🌈

Members of our congregation led a beautiful service with stories of faith, identity, and the ways God's grace is still at work in their lives. We reaffirmed our Statement of Inclusion. We lit candles. We came to the table where all are welcomed, all are fed, all are beloved.

We were nourished for what comes next: blessing every person marching in the Columbus Pride Parade. Because that's what it looks like to be sent.❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

Justice Camp Day 4: Taking Justice to the Streets ✊

Today campers put their learning into action by exploring the neighborhood, visiting the Social Justice Park, making protest signs, and marching together.

This week they dove into education, immigration, and disability justice. Today's biggest lesson? Justice movements are built by everyday people who choose to speak up, show up, and work together. Nobody changes the world alone. 💙

We saw some pretty creative signs today. Which one is your favorite? Let us know in the comments! ⬇️

Justice Camp Day 3: Disability Justice ♿

Campers learned about disability justice and reflected on inclusion, accessibility, and the unique gifts each person brings to a community. We were also honored to hear from Arthur, a member of our church and Special Olympics athlete, who shared his experiences and inspired us with his story.

We also decorated "Different Is Beautiful" cupcakes, celebrating the truth that our differences aren't problems to fix, but gifts that make our world richer and more beautiful.

Here's a look at Day 3! 💙

🌎 Justice Camp Day 2: Immigration Justice

Today we explored what it means to create a world where everyone is welcomed with dignity, compassion, and belonging.

Campers heard powerful stories from members of our own church community who immigrated to the United States, packed welcome kits for newly arrived neighbors through Community Refugee and Immigration Services (CRIS) , sampled foods from around the world, and played games enjoyed by children in different countries.

Along the way, we learned that every person has a story, every neighbor deserves to be welcomed, and our differences make our community stronger.

Day 1 of Justice Camp = Education Justice!📚

Today we learned about the Lincoln School Marchers, young people who stood up for fairness in education and helped create change in their community.

Through stories, games, discussion, dancing, and plenty of fun, campers explored what it means to make sure every child has access to opportunities to learn and thrive. We also reflected on how faith calls us to notice unfairness and work for a more just world.

Here's a look at Day 1! ✨
