Grace Baptist Church of Philadelphia
Grace Baptist Church is the legal name of Grace Baptist Temple, an American Baptist congregation founded in North Philadelphia in 1874. Under the leadership of Russell H. Conwell, the congregation became one of the largest in the country and was the parent of many other institutions, most notably Temple University. The congregation is now located in the suburb of Blue Bell and is not affiliated with an Independent Baptist of the same name located in the Bridesburg section of the city.
==Growth under Russell Conwell==
In 1882, Russell H. Conwell was appointed pastor of the church, whose building was still under construction. The congregation grew rapidly under Conwell's energetic and charismatic leadership, and a new building, the Baptist Temple, opened in 1891. With up to 15,000 worshippers every Sunday, it was both one of the first examples of an "institutional church" offering social and educational programming along with traditional services and a precursor of the 20th century mega-church.
