About the Provider
Twelfth Baptist Church is a direct descendant of the First African Baptist Meeting House on Beacon Hill, founded in 1805. In 1840, a band of dissenters from the church felt led of the Holy Spirit to become involved in the Underground Railroad, an organized means of smuggling slaves from bondage in the South to freedom in the North. They became known as the Twelfth Baptist Church of Boston. After several moves around Beacon Hill, the congregation followed the population shift of the African American community to Lower Roxbury. It was housed for many years on the corner of Shawmut Avenue and Madison Street. Twelfth moved to its present location, One Sixty Warren Street, Roxbury, in 1957. Twelfth Baptist seeks to be a microcosm of the Church of Jesus Christ - a church where people of every tongue and nation are welcomed to celebrate the joy of the resurrection. She is a teaching church in which the Word of God is upheld in its integrity. She is a reaching church, located in the midst of a multi-faceted community. She is a preaching church, calling people to repentance and to a life dedicated to God through the Lord Jesus Christ. Since 1964, Twelfth Baptist Church has been led by Dr. Michael E. Haynes, a Roxbury native. Dr. Haynes has served in the Massachusetts House of Representatives and as a member of the state Parole Board. He serves on the board of directors of several organizations including Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary, Christianity Today, and the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association. He also is a member of the U. S. Board of Daystar University, Nairobi.
