Wealthy Street Baptist Church

Wealthy Street Baptist Church is a Protestant church building in Grand Rapids designed with spaces for congregational gatherings and community use. The structure accommodated worship services and neighborhood events throughout its time in operation.

The church was founded in 1886 and experienced rapid growth through its early decades. The building later housed an educational institution before the congregation relocated to a new location.

The congregation served as a gathering place for worship and neighborhood activities in southeast Grand Rapids. Members were involved in supporting community programs and building social connections within the city.

The site is located in southeast Grand Rapids and accessible by local transportation options. Visitors should note that the building may no longer function as an active church today.

The building housed a college between 1941 and 1964 that eventually became a university. This period gave the structure a second purpose as an educational center during its middle years.
