New Bethel Missionary Baptist Church

Wess Pollard, Jr., being led by the Holy Spirit and with a few people believing in him, met in his home at 1706 N. After prayer and meditation Rev. Pollard revealed to us how it was put upon him to start a Congregation and from that moment New Bethel Missionary Baptist Church was birthed. Present at the first meeting were Rev. Wess Pollard, Sis. Christie Pollard, Sis. Jackie Pollard, Bro. West Pol

lard, III, Bro Sylvester Pollard, Bro. Patrick Pollard and Sis. After meeting at the Pollard’s home several times, more space was needed. The Congregation leased a building at 605 NE Monroe Street. Much work was needed, but with much prayer, faith, determination and hard work we were able to complete renovations on July 2, 1994. Our first worship service was conducted on July 3, 1994.
