Old Community Baptist Church, located at 238 W Kirkham Ave in Webster Groves, Missouri, was established shortly after the Civil War on the site of an old one-room African American schoolhouse. Originally known as First Baptist Church of Webster Groves, the church has undergone numerous renovations and rebuilds, including a significant update in 2012.

With a rich history founded by former slaves, Old Community Baptist Church serves around 150 worshippers and stands as the oldest African American house of worship in Webster Groves. The church community is currently navigating potential redevelopment plans for the surrounding neighborhood, expressing both hope and concern about the impact on their historic establishment.
