Administrative/Biographical History
Founded in 1889 at the corner of Hancock and Cushing Avenue with proceeds from a bequest from Miss Sarah Baker. A small congregation on Howard Street (Roxbury) moved into this church in 1889. The tower was condemned by the city in 1940, and the church was closed in 1943. Many members went to another church located on Howard Avenue that was founded in 1903. Author: Patricia Diaz-Centeno
