About Our Church

God has abundantly nurtured, blessed and endowed Trinity Baptist Church for 90 years to serve as a beacon light and a spiritual role model in the community, city, state, nation and world.

Organized in October of 1918 as Trinity Baptist Church; the first Negro Baptist Church of Pontiac, Michigan had it's beginnings in November of 1917 as New Hope Baptist Church.

	Started in November 1917 with the aid of a white congregation named Memorial Baptist Church then located at South Saginaw and Prospect streets in Pontiac.
	The services were held at 3 p.m. Sundays, a time when the white congregation wasn't using the building.
	Before the end of December 1917, the doors of Memorial Baptist Church were closed to the Negro Christians due to a fuel shortage.
	Through nearly a century of existence, Trinity Church today still reflects the tenets of it's church founders: Worship, Discipleship, Fellowship with all of the honor, glory, and praise to the one true God...
