Second Baptist Church Anniversary

Second Baptist Church, 1728 Tremont St., will be celebrating their 140th church anniversary this Sunday, March 16 @ 3p.m. Rev. David Stewart & Mt. Emory Baptist Church from Jacksonville, IL will be our guests. Second Baptist is one of 2 black churches in Lincoln. It was formed in 1874 by 10 Christians (some of whom were former slaves) who met in each others' homes for the 1st two years until they had enough funds to build their first structure on Broadway St. with land donated by Mr. & Mrs. Thomas Jefferson.

Second Baptist moved to their new location on Tremont St. with a march from the old church to the new one in 1997. The march included ex-Mayor John Guzzardo and several other townspeople. We had a police and fire truck escort for the journey to the new edifice. Second Baptist's membership has become very diverse over the last few decades under the leadership of their current pastor, Rev. Glenn Shelton
