History

In the year of 1902, a small group of people living in various communities surrounding Green Haven, New York, felt a buring desire to formulate a central place of worship  to fulfill their spirtual needs. 

Opportunities were extended to them to meet in the home of Mrs Hannah H. Sheldon for prayers and devotion. From these prayer meetings began the organization of what is today Mount Zion Baptist Church of Green Haven, New York. The organization of the church was prompted by prominent leaders in the area.  In 1903, the church was erected on donated land.

There has been a succession of fine, progressive leadership from Rev. Berry in 1902 to our own Rev. W. R. Hall today.
