Welcome to the Facebook page of the Monumental Baptist Church, founded in the year of our Lord 1826, the second oldest African-American Baptist Church both in the city of Philadelphia and in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Through Worship, Ministry, Evangelism, Fellowship, and Discipleship, we seek to make known the saving grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, to appreciate and celebrate our past, as well as to serve this present age, as we prepare for the age to come.
