In Boston, at Audubon Circle, is the Ruggles Baptist Church.

The church is located at the corner of Beacon Street and Park Drive, on the north corner.

The church building is a brick structure with an entrance to Park Drive and one to Beacon Street. There is a spire that extends above the building. The entrance on Park Drive is at the top of a set of stairs and likely is direct access to the auditorium. The Entrance from Beacon Street is likely to church offices. The spire is brick at the base and has a clock face in each direction. Above are two levels of stone features that includes a belfry. Above, the spire narrows to a point.

The Baptist congregation started in 1870 from a merger of two Sunday Schools in Boston. The church was named for the street, Ruggles Street, that it was originally located on. Eventually, the church outgrew its Ruggles Street location and considered what to do, next. In 1970, this building, originally built by the Second Church of Boston (Congregational, then Unitarian), became available. The Baptist church has occupied this building since.

The church was also involved in the founding of the Boston Baptist Church, which became today's New England Baptist Hospital.

Services are Sundays at 10 AM.
