Govans Presbyterian Church 5828 York Road, Baltimore, MD 21212

"What a beautiful place to worship. They are LGBTQIA+ inclusive and anti-racist. There is a growing youth presence and the congregation is progressive and welcoming. So glad to have Govans."

"Govans is the best! Warm, welcoming, full of seekers who come from many directions in their faith. Progressive in their theology, welcoming to all, doing good works and especially focused now on racial justice. Come check it out. Church may not be what you think it is!"

"Govans is amazing and Baltimore is so lucky to have this church! How much work everyone does here to help those in need in Baltimore and abroad. And how open and loving Govans is to everyone!"

"I visited this church for over a month. I am a transgender woman and I have never felt anything but welcome there. I was nervous because I had to leave my previous church after my transition, but at Govans I felt like I came home as myself."

"Govans embodies love in its many facets: welcome, inclusion, support, faith, resilience, and resistance against intolerance. For our kids when they were young, it provided a fun, diverse circle of friends with whom to explore issues of faith and growth. The music group and worship style provided entertainment and a chance to explore performance and celebration of spirituality. As adults, the discussions were stimulating, and the friendships have endured. Overall, it provided our family a space for us to learn, participate, and commune."
