HISTORY

How it all started...

In 1956, Emmanuel Baptist Church in Dayton, Ohio contacted Paul Kirkman about coming to Fairborn to organize a New Testament Baptist church. So on February 10, 1957, Grace Baptist Church was organized under their authority.

Grace Baptist had its beginning in July 1963 when a merger of Grace Baptist and Maranatha Baptist took place.

Several churches were organized under the authority of Grace Baptist Church: New Testament Baptist Church in Greentown, Ohio, Faith Baptist Church in Wauseon, Ohio and Grace Baptist Church of Oklawaha, Florida. Grace also authorized works in Nuremberg, Germany and Palmer, Alaska.
