Fun Fact: The name "Moraine" comes from the geologic term for the deposit of sand and gravel left by glaciers many years ago after  the global flood.

Welcome to the Moraine Heights Baptist Church. The church was originally started as a mission project of West Side Baptist Church now the Far Hills Baptist Church. During 1948 - 1949, the West Side Baptist Church held a series of meetings in Moraine, Ohio. In June 1949, after Vacation Bible Schools, revivals, and much prayer, believers began to feel a real burden for a permanent work in Moraine..

Travis Hudson showed promising potential and most importantly, the hand of God. After much encouragement and prayer from the congregation, Travis Hudson accepted the call to pastor the little mission and was ordained.

On June 10, 1951, with only half a building, the mission was organized into a church. The building had no doors or window panes just a floor, a roof, and four walls. The average attendance was 80. the church voted to be called the West Moraine Baptist Church and to become affiliated with the Whitewater Association of Missionary Baptists and the Southern Baptist Convention. There were 31 charter members of the brave crowd. So began a wonderful work of God...The Church on the Top of the Hill. Today, we are pastored by Terrell Hudson during the last 10 years.  The church history is really about the hard-working members!

And so were the churches established in the faith, and increased in number daily. -Acts 16:5
