Description

In 1928, St Mark’s Missionary Baptist church was the first church built in Valley Truck Farms on Central just west of Waterman Ave. In its early days it was a refuge for people displaced by a historic flood in the region and later became overflow space for the growing Mill School. The church served the community for over 90 years and only had four full-time pastors.
