LEARN ABOUT OUR HISTORY
You can learn about our congregation’s remarkable history by clicking here.
Like Christ, we at Shiloh Baptist Church (Old Site) in Fredericksburg, Virginia, strive to be God’s “living word” in a hurting world. Like Christ, we seek to extend an inclusive embrace to those who have been beaten down, pushed aside, or locked out. Like Christ, we try to serve as Spirit-led agents of God’s healing power and transforming love.
Visitors and guests are always welcome.
Please note that we primarily enter and exit through a recessed glass door that is just a little to the left of the double red doors that face the sidewalk.
Our sanctuary is on the second floor. After entering through the glass door, you can turn to your left and ride up on our elevator. Or you can turn to the right and walk up the main double staircase.
Although the wearing of face masks is optional, some of us do wear masks when we’re together in the building. It’s a way of protecting and caring for each other, knowing that Covid and other diseases are often spread before we know that we’re infectious.

Mid-day prayer services
At 11:30 a.m. each Monday and Wednesday, we offer a dial-in prayer service.
