OUR STORY
How it all started...
In 1850, Palestine Baptist Church started as a church plant of Staunton Baptist Church, meeting in a school house with just 20 members. Our first plot of ground was sold to the church for $20. Thanks to God moving and the generosity of one of our members, we purchased more land and eventually built the church we are blessed with today.
Our vision...
“A Spirit-filled House of Prayer...”
“It is written, 'My house shall be called a house of prayer for all nations…'” Matthew 21:13
"When they had prayed, the place where they were assembled was shaken, and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak the word of God boldly."
Acts 4:31
