History
Established in 1864.
On the third Sunday in June (1864) a few black missionaries and Rev. Butler, a white minister from Richardson, met under a large elm tree in the White Rock area of Dallas. At that meeting, the Mt. Pisgah Missionary Baptist Church was born and dedicated to God.
In 1886 the church made its second major dedication to serve God. By the year 1888 the first trustees negotiated and purchased the first site at 14000 Preston Road on February 21, 1889. Sometime shortly after that, the church was built.
The years passed, circumstances arose, and the community changed; but the Rock stood. By 1943 the members were ready for a third major dedication, a new church structure. Since that time two other major dedications to serve the Lord became a part of Mt. Pisgah's history. In 1978, the church acquired adjacent land for expansion at the Preston Road site. This land served as a parking lot. On April 30, 1981, the church purchased a three acre church complex located at 11611 Webb Chapel Rd.
