100 Year Anniversary

N THE EVENING OF NOVEMBER 6, 1924, A COUNCIL FROM THE OAK RIDGE BAPTIST CHURCH OF SAND SPRINGS AND THE GLENWOOD BAPTIST CHURCH OF TULSA ON THE SAND SPRINGS LINE MET IN SHADY GROVE SCHOOLHOUSE TO ORGANIZE THE SHADY GROVE BAPTIST CHURCH. IN NOVEMBER OF 1926  THE CHURCH HELD ITS FIRST WORSHIP SERVICE IN ITS NEW BUILDING AT BRUNER STATION, 6500 W 4 PL ON FEBRUARY 2, 1931. IN OCTOBER OF 1935 THE CHURCH VOTED BY A LARGE MAJORITY TO CHANGE ITS NAME TO OLIVET BAPTIST CHURCH.  IN 1960 THE CHURCH LEARNED THAT THE KEYSTONE EXPRESSWAY WOULD REQUIRE THEIR PRESENT SIGHT. THE SEARCH WAS ON FOR A NEW PROPERTY WHICH LED THEM TO OUR CURRENT LOCATION. HOLDING ITS FIRST WORSHIP SERVICE AT OUR PRESENT SIGHT IN FEBRUARY 1964, IT HAS BEEN HOME EVER SINCE.

SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 3, 2024 Olivet celebrated our 100 year anniversary.
