1892-Present

Judson Baptist Church

Prescott, Michigan              MI

The founding pastor of this congregation in southeastern Michigan was Rev. Adoniram Judson Waterbury who began pastoring in nearby Tawas, MI, in 1892. There must have been an early church planting program to encourage him to begin this congregation that same year. He is credited with leading the construction on both the first church building and parsonage in 1892 (see entry 1831-1910 and accompanying picture).

The congregation took down their original building in 2007 to construct a more modern facility where they continue to meet at 201 Harrison Road.  The congregation uses the King James Version of the Bible and describes itself as an Independent Fundamental Baptist Church led by pastor Doug Kennedy.[1]
