OUR CHURCH HISTORY
On May 1, 1962, a small group of members assembled in a building that had been used for a grocery store located at 1511 San Bernard Street in Austin, TX. The purpose was to organize a Primitive Baptist church. This small group of believers and another group joined together and proposed a merger to join together and form one church. This proposal was unanimously accepted and announced by Rev. R.H. Howard.
On July 1, 1962, a groundbreaking ceremony was held on Lots 1 and 16 of block-B in the Truman Heights Subdivision at 5303 Samuel Huston Avenue, under the leadership of Rev. R.H. Howard, who remained at Rehoboth as Pastor until 1967.
After much thought and prayer, Rehoboth chose another leader, Rev. R.D. Reese. He accepted the call and responsibility and was the pastor of Rehoboth from 1967-2005.
Rev. Homer Cyphers served as the Interim Pastor, when our beloved Pastor Reese answered God's call to Glory. With much prayer and supplication, Rev. R.A. Hendricks, a servant eager to do God's will, became the Pastor of Rehoboth Baptist Church.
Under his leadership, many auxiliaries in the church were formed including the Men's Ministry, Health and Wellness Ministry, Food and Clothing Ministry and Rehoboth's Children's Church.
In 2013, Rehoboth celebrated our 50th Golden Jubilee Anniversary!!!
God has abundantly blessed us and under our current leadership, 130 members have come forth to join the Rehoboth church family.
With God, all things are Possible!!!!!!
