Title
Loveland Church
Description
One of the early churches in the historic North Fontana community, the church was first founded as First Baptist Church of North Fontana on May 13, 1949. It was one of the centers of community life in the thriving North Fontana community as the community grew in the 1950s and 1960s and fought for civil rights. When Pastor Chuck Singleton was serving as pastor in 1981, he led the church to embrace a new name and to become Loveland. Inspired by the faithful nucleus of First Baptist members who followed their Pastor’s vision, Loveland opened its doors for the first time in the spring of 1981. More than 500 believers gathered to worship at the beautiful new facility constructed at the corner of Sierra and Baseline Avenues in Fontana, CA.
