About Kew Baptist Church
Kew Baptist (KBC) is situated on Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung peoples’ land in the inner eastern suburb of Melbourne. Founded in 1856, it has a rich heritage and history of faith and service within the community of Kew and beyond.
We are a welcoming community of people that share a faith in Christ but are diverse in background. The church has 250-300 people across two congregations, with small groups a central element of church life and discipleship. Both faithful congregations have experienced growth and change over the last few years. The Morning Church congregation has seen an increased number of families and young couples attending, together with the established senior attendees. NightChurch has also continued to grow with current and former residents of the Kew Student Residence (a ministry of KBC since 1962) continuing to attend together with an increasing number of young people connecting in, both singles and couples.
