The Pilgrim Baptist Church is a child of Rehoboth Baptist Church, being born when a small group was lead out by Brother George Bray and others in 1910.

On March 29. 1911 seventy-five persons met in Faith Chapel, which was located on "M" Street between 4th and 6th Streets, S.W., and organized themselves into the Pilgrim Baptist Church. After accepting the call on February 3, 1990, Rev. Louis B. Jones II, was elected as the fifth pastor of Pilgrim Baptist Church and continues to share the word of God to it's members.
