History

 

The Oregon Hill Baptist Center is one of three Baptist Centers located in inner-city Richmond. The Center is supported by the churches of the River City Faith Network along with others outside the Network who have taken a keen interest in assisting our ministries.

 

The Oregon Hill Center began as the Cary Street Baptist Center on June 7, 1940. In 1974 it was moved to its present location inside of Pine Street Baptist Church, and the name was changed to the Oregon Hill Baptist Center. The Center and Church work very closely in partnership along with many volunteers to reach the community and beyond with the light and love of Jesus Christ.
