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.
