Historical Information
In 1956, First Baptist Church conducted a survey of the north west area of Moncton and found sufficient support and enthusiasm to warrant the founding of a new Baptist congregation. 43 people indicated their willingness to be members and on December 3, 1957, the church was organized with 56 charter members.
The first meetings were held in the building which had been constructed as a parsonage, but the numbers soon grew to the point where the congregation had to meet in the auditorium of the Queen Elizabeth School.
Construction of the new church building started on June 30, 1958 and the basement was ready to hold services by October. The dedication service of the new building was on December 7, 1958. The church built a Christian Education Centre in 1974.
