Our church has over 8,000 members and continues to grow “Building Disciples to Win the World for Christ.” ASBC has over 80 ministries to meet member needs. Over the years, Alfred Street has been a leader among churches and has made significant contributions in education, missions, children ministries, and advancement of women. Alfred Street was among the first churches to ordain women as deacons (1979) and the first in Virginia to ordain an African American woman minister (1980).
