ABOUT SHILOH COMMUNITY

Honoring the Past, Embracing the Future & Enhancing the Future With Praise!

Shiloh Baptist Church was organized as a Mission at a meeting in the home of Mr. James Harper, Sr., in Allegheny City, now known as the Northside of Pittsburgh, in the Fall of 1882. There were twenty-two members and the late Rev. Isham Lafayette served as Pastor. Shiloh was recognized as a Baptist Church at a council meeting held in September of 1887. It was admitted as a member of the Pittsburgh Baptist Association in 1888. It remained a member until 1903 when it joined the Allegheny Association.

Community Baptist Church was a branch of Bethany Baptist Church. It was organized in 1934 by the late Maurice L. Gordon. The Church began as a Mission, located in the 7300 block of Frankstown Avenue. In 1935, the church moved to 1303 Collier Street where it remained until its merger with Shiloh. In the Spring of 1942, Rev. Gaines was called to the pastorate of Community Baptist.

Upon the merger of these two churches was born Shiloh Community Missionary Baptist Church. On the first Sunday in November, 1963, led by Rev. C. Leroy Hacker and Rev. Herbert H. Gaines, the two churches came together. Shiloh entered on the right side of the church led by their Pastor, Rev. C. Leroy Hacker. Community entered on the left side of the church, led by their Pastor, Rev. Hubert H. Gaines. Both groups met at the center aisle and what a beautiful sight it was! Pastor Gaines served with us for eight years. The Lord called him to glory in January of 1971.

Rev. Hacker pastored Shiloh Community for twenty seven years until his retirement in 1990. During his pastorship, we were blessed to be able to make improvements to both the exterior and interior appearance of the church. Over a twenty six year period, we purchased property adjacent to the church, added a ladies lounge, remodeled the kitchen, and put new carpeting in the sanctuary. Rev. Hacker was called home to glory in 1994.

In June of 1991, the Lord sent us a young, spirit filled minister, Reverend Hubert D. Hutcherson. In the time he has been with us, we have experienced a wonderful spiritual growth, beginning with the ordination of seven deacons, and the setting aside of eleven Deaconess. Their additions to Shiloh Community have helped the Pastor in reaching our increased membership, visits with the sick, and constant prayers. Our membership has increased not only on Sunday mornings, but also in our Sunday School and in our mid-week prayer meetings.

We thank God for what he has already done for us, and are looking for even greater things, as we render ourselves unselfishly to His service. Truly, the Lord has tremendously blessed Shiloh Community Missionary Baptist Church! And remember as Pastor Hutcherson always says

– "Through Christ, it can be done."
