Douglas Tabernacle Brief History of the Douglas Tabernacle P.B. It had a humble, yet, inspiring beginning. Elder Douglas said “God laid it on my heart to build a church”. Rev. Bro. C.

Church “ A Church Striving to Be Better Stewards for Christ” In 1941, the late Elder Anderson (Big A) Douglas founded the church in Huntsville, Alabama. Space was rented in an old garage on University Drive once called a “Pigeon House”. Jackson Holman of St. Bartley P.B. Church preached the first sermon in the old garage. Tom Alexander suggested that the church be named “Douglas Tabernacle” after the founder, Elder Anderson Douglas. Dr. Brooks gave the first $100.00 toward the building of the church. Two lots was purchased (this site) for $275.00 and the church was organized on a pile of lumber out front. In 1942, they built a frame church that seated 126 people. The congregation soon grew and another building was needed. A second building was constructed-a 2,700 square foot blockhouse with a seating capacity of 125-200. In 1991, following the leadership of the Holy Spirit, Pastor Rogers and the church again stepped out on faith. The congregation sold bonds and contributed from the church’s account to construct a new sanctuary. The new sanctuary was completed in 1992, which seats approximately 350 people. The congregation purchased several lots near the church, believing that God will continue to bless them physically and spiritually. In early 1998, the Holy Spirit led Pastor Rogers to form a committee to renovate the fellowship hall. The church agreed to rebuild the fellowship hall. After months of hard work and prayer the building was completed one day before the 128th Annual Session was to begin. God is still an On-time-God!!!! The Anderson Douglas Fellowship Hall was dedicated to the Lord on the 5th Sunday in November (29) 1998. November 27, 2005, the church held a Mortgage Burning Ceremony. In 2009, the Douglas Tabernacle sanctuary and Fellowship Hall was renovated. “To God Be the Glory for the Things He Has Done”. The beautification project was completed and January 17, 2010, we celebrated with a dedication service. Since 1942, the Lord and Savior has seen fit to call some from labor to reward. Douglas Tabernacle have had only three Pastors: The late Anderson Douglas, from 1941 to 1976; the late A. Mastin from 1976 to 1989; and its present Pastor, Robert L. Rogers, Sr. who came to Douglas Tabernacle in 1988 and has been serving as Pastor since 1989.
