History
The church was organized in 1928 by Claude E. Spraque, Jr. who was pastor from 1928 till his death in 1930. In 1942 a new 700-seat sanctuary was constructed costing $37,000. In 1953 a 125 seat balcony was added. This group formed a church and it began to grow. Throughout the years Brainerd has reached out to people, not only in this neighborhood, but people from all over this region. Over 80 years later, Brainerd continues to have a great impact on the community.
