The Tabernacle Baptist Church is an independent, fundamental Baptist Church that was started by the authority of Faith Baptist Church, Granite City, IL. Her members seek only to serve God in the work that Christ has commissioned, while patiently awaiting His imminent return. The church is missionary minded and is blessed to participate in the support of missionaries. Please see our Confession of Faith and Church Covenant for information about the faith and practice of the Tabernacle Baptist Church.

Pastor Mel Kimberlin, and his wife Darlene, have been with the church since its beginning.
