About New Hope Baptist Church
New Hope Baptist Church is a historic Baptist congregation in Birmingham, founded on November 5, 1892. Dr. Gregory L. Clarke became the church’s tenth pastor in 1986 and was officially installed on January 1, 1987. The church’s history includes several Birmingham and Alabama firsts, including opening daycare and kindergarten programs in 1950 that continue today, building what it identifies as the first Mega Sanctuary by a Black Baptist church in Birmingham in 1974, and receiving a $3 million U.S. Health and Human Services grant to teach abstinence in Birmingham schools. New Hope also offers children’s ministry and a weekly television broadcast for shut-ins.
