The church, one of two extant African-American congregations in the county, was founded in 1872. (The First Baptist Church of Burlington is the other.) The congregation developed from a group of local residents who held prayer services in the home of one of the members. A combination church and school building was erected in 1884, which was replaced by the present building in 1922.
