American Baptist Churches of Greater Indianapolis is one of 33 regions (middle judicatories) of American Baptist Churches in the USA. With a history as the Indianapolis Baptist Association going back to 1826, our 41 churches in Marion and bordering counties in Central Indiana are seeking to empower churches to transform lives and communities.
