31 - FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH
This
church was organized in 1869 as the Beeville Baptist Church. Its first
sanctuary was built near Poesta Creek in 1871. The congregation grew quickly,
emerging as the largest among the 39 members of the regional Blanco Baptist
Association by 1876. The congregation changed its name to First Baptist Church
of Beeville about 1887. Through the efforts of the Rev. J. M. SaIlee and his
family, the church began a tradition of extensive foreign missionary work about
1900. The congregation built its fourth sanctuary at this site in 1957.
