Plainview Baptist Church

Colorado City, Mitchell County

Marker Text

Begun as a mission of the Spade Community's Liberty Baptist Church, this fellowship met as early as 1906 in the Plainview Community Schoolhouse. On May 16, 1908, an organizational meeting was held to establish an independent congregation that became known as Plainview Baptist Church. Several members of the Liberty Baptist Church joined the new church at Plainview to provide leadership during its early years. Throughout its history, Plainview Baptist Church has maintained an active fellowship and has played an important role in the community's development. (1983)
