Our Church was born out of a revival in Topsham and Brunswick. During the revival, one hundred fifty-two people were added to the Topsham Baptist Church by immersion. On October 25, 1840 forty-four of the Brunswick residents of the Topsham Baptist Church were dismissed from membership to form their own church in Brunswick "village," The church, the former Maine Street Baptist Church, was built just north of the intersection of Lincoln and Maine Streets in Brunswick. The building we now occupy was dedicated on January 9, 1890. It was built by Jeremiah Philbrook of Portland and designed by architect, Junius E. Morse of Boston. The cost, including the furniture, came to about $12,000. We thank God for one hundred sixty eight years of faithfully proclaiming the Gospel. We faithfully sing "Blest be the ties that bind our hearts in Christian love" at the close of each Communion Service. This web page is dedicated to strengthening the unity that has been made between believers by the Holy Spirit of God. We trust that you will prayerfully enjoy it to that end. Psalm 133:1 says, "Behold how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!" |
