HISTORY

In 2021, The leadership at Northwood Baptist Greenridge began praying for opportunities to help dying churches live again. God answered that prayer by allowing Northwood Baptist to replant Gethsemane Baptist Church in Summerville, South Carolina. Gethsemane Baptist Church had struggled for years, and at the time Northwood Baptist Greenridge adopted Gethsemane Baptist, the church had approximately twenty people in attendance, and they had not seen anyone come to faith in Jesus Christ in years. Northwood Baptist Greenridge sent a team of people to Gethsemane Baptist to replant the church, led by Pastor Jay Glasgow. In 2023, Gethsemane Baptist baptized ten people, and the church grew to approximately seventy people in average attendance. On April 7, 2024, Gethsemane Baptist Church joined with Northwood Baptist Church to form a family of churches. Gethsemane Baptist became Northwood Baptist Berkeley, and Northwood Baptist Church became known as Northwood Baptist Greenridge. In 2023, Northwood Baptist Greenridge began a replanting relationship with Wando Woods Baptist Church. On April 21, 2024, Wando Woods joined the Northwood Family of Churches and become Northwood Baptist at Wando Woods. We look forward to welcoming more churches into our family as we radically cooperate for the work of the Gospel in the Low Country and beyond.
