Church History

Celebrating our heritage and honoring those who shaped our community

Our Foundations

Mount Pleasant Baptist Church has a rich history of faith, service, and community. Our church was built on the vision and dedication of faithful servants who sought to create a place where people could encounter God and grow together in Christian fellowship.

Church Founders

Our church was established by devoted believers who felt called to create a spiritual home in Barry. Their vision was to build not just a building, but a community centered on the teachings of Jesus Christ and the principles of Baptist faith.
