Our History

Serving Belize since 1822.

Shortly after the formation of the Independent Baptist Mission in Belize, a lot of land, with two small houses thereon, was presented to the Mission by Mr., George Tillett, staunch friend of Mr. Henderson and a constant supporter of the Church.   This lot was situated at the corner of Queen Street and Gabourel Lane, with the front entrance on Eve Street.   On this lot was built the Queen Street Church, which became and continued to be, until destroyed by hurricane in 1931, the principal Baptist place of worship in the Colony.

The building was a fairly large two-storied one, the upper flat being the Chapel, and the under flat the School hall and Vestry.
