History
Burton Hill Baptist Church was formed in September of 1953 as a mission of Connell Baptist Church in Fort Worth and the Tarrant Baptist Association. A single-story frame building served as the first church building.
In March 1954 the church completed its first new building which could accommodate about 200 in the worship service. The church added an education wing two years later and began holding two worship services.
A new L-shaped auditorium and education building was built in 1958 which could seat over 450 for worship. The auditorium was converted to a fellowship hall and kitchen when the new worship center was built in 1965.
A fire in 1982 completely destroyed the 1965 auditorium so the decision was made to rebuild but on a smaller scale. The new auditorium, built in 1983, used the existing concrete slab but was only one story and contained less square footage.
A new church building was completed in April of 2019 which houses all of the various ministries of the church. The previous buildings and land were sold to provide for this new energy efficient building. We invite you to come by and see what the Lord has provided!
