Plan Your VisitHistory Of Mildred Baptist Church
Mildred Chapel Missionary Baptist Church held its first service in the new sanctuary on the first Sunday in June 2002, led by Reverend Shirley Hill and Reverend Garry Bryant. Seventeen years later, we continue to enjoy these services, guided by the Holy Spirit and our former pastor, Reverend Walter Cherry, Jr.
In 2009, under Pastor Cherry's leadership and with the support of the congregation, a new project was initiated to expand our dining room. By the third Sunday in October 2010, we celebrated two major milestones: the church's 100th Anniversary and the completion of our new Fellowship Hall.
This Fellowship Hall was dedicated and named The W.C. Fellowship Hall in honor of Pastor Rev. Walter Cherry, Jr.
