Baptist congregations carry forward a particular branch of the Christian story. Baptist churches are Protestant Christian congregations that practice believer's baptism by immersion and emphasize the autonomy of the local church. The Baptist tradition is one of the largest Protestant families in the United States. The tradition traces its modern form to the early 17th century. Today the tradition counts approximately 50 million in the U.S.

It joins a long tradition of Christian witness across the West, where Spanish missions, Asian-American congregations, and modern megachurches all share the landscape. San Diego sits within California, whose state capital is Sacramento. The church reflects the broader presence of the Baptist community across California.
