Pinn Memorial Baptist Church was founded in 1908.  We are an autonomous Missionary Baptist Church affiliated with the American Baptist Convention.  Our fundamental purpose is to make disciples and to further the gospel message of Jesus Christ.  As the Lord blessed this ministry, many witnesses were sent forth to those who otherwise would have not known Christ as their personal Savior.  In 1950, the church moved from Slaon and Powelton Avenue to Belmont and Westminster Avenue.  The church resided at this location for twenty-two years until the church building was destroyed by fire.  Pinn Memorial held services in various Churches and at the Millcreek Center for roughly five years.  In 1982 the Lord opened the way for the Pinn Memorial church and congregation to move into its present location at Fifty-fourth and Wynnefield Avenue
