Our Religious History
What has been called “the most important religious gathering in all of American history”—the Great Revival of 1801—took place at Cane Ridge, a short drive north of Lexington.
African American Traditions
Lexington’s First African Baptist Church, founded in 1790, is the third-oldest Baptist congregation of African Americans in the United States, and the oldest in the state of Kentucky.
Statewide Religious Organizations
The Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) in Kentucky, Transylvania Presbytery (Presbyterian Church U.S.A.), Episcopal Diocese of Lexington and the Catholic Diocese of Lexington are all based here.
First in the West
Christ Church Episcopal (1796) was the first Episcopal congregation west of the Allegheny Mountains. Walnut Hill Presbyterian Church (1801) is the oldest Presbyterian Church building in Kentucky.
