Our church was organized in 1938 in Miami, Florida, as the Shiloh Missionary Baptist Church under the leadership of the late Rev. L. Wallace. The church was renamed New Shiloh Missionary Baptist Church in 1960, under the leadership of the late Rev. A.M. Griffin. In addition to Pastor Wallace and Pastor Griffin, THE LORD has given us two other great men after HIS own heart; dedicated and determined servants to lead HIS people: The late Rev. Dr. Arthur Jackson, Jr., former Moderator of the Florida East Coast Missionary Baptist Association and President of the Florida General Baptist Convention; and our current Pastor, Rev. Dr. D.L. Powell. All of these gospel giants have contributed in their own way to the tremendous growth in membership, ministries, and ministry of the church. As a church, we believe in THE LIVING GOD, as FATHER, SON, and HOLY SPIRIT. We also believe in the Bible, as the inspired, LIVING WORD of THE LORD. Our faith in THE LORD, others, and ourselves, have inspired and enabled us to become a beacon of hope, help, and healing in our local community, our state, and even our nation. “It is nice to be nice”, as Pastor Jackson would say; and we continue to “Trust GOD More”, as Pastor Powell informs and inspires us to do each day. We have endured many trials in our more than 82 years of existence: The uncertainties of infancy. Economic hardships. Relocation and rebuilding. Racial tension and segregation. Losing one sanctuary to fire. Limiting our current sanctuary; and many others. THE LORD brought us through each trial. Each of our pastors have shown true leadership in face of these crises; and our church family has remained faithful and fruitful down through the years. We are grateful that you have chosen to reach out to us in this way. We encourage you to read our complete church history, as found on this app or on our church website @ www.nsmbc.net. If you are already a part of our church family, THANK YOU for your commitment and continued service. If you are not, we invite you to give prayerful and careful consideration to joining us. The LORD bless thee, and keep thee: The LORD make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee: The LORD lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace. Numbers 6:24-26 (KJV)
