Historical Statement
In the year of 1888, “five Negro Baptist women,
with great faith and courage, organized the Grace
Baptist Mission.” For over one hundred years,
Grace Baptist Church of Mount Vernon, New York,
has stood as joyous hymn to the glory of God and
to the endurance of the human spirit. As the oldest
Black Church in Mount Vernon, our church has been
the fountainhead from which almost all Baptist,
Methodist, Pentecostal and Episcopalian Churches
have flowed. Furthermore, other social, economic
and health institutions of the Black community
in Mount Vernon have been historically rooted
in Grace Baptist Church. Read more of our history
