PEACE IN YOUR HOUSE

Order No. 203

ABOUT: The church belfry shown in this design is from the First Baptist Church in Wickford, Rhode Island. In 1816, Wickford Village was a growing community of shipbuilders, farmers and those involved in coastal trade. The harbor was filled with brigs and schooners and many were loaded with crops and goods from the area to be shipped to far off places. On May 3, 1816, a group of residents formed the Baptist Society “for the purpose of building a Meeting House in the Village of Wickford.” It was completed in 1817 for a total cost of $2,850.

I was glad when they said to me, “Let us go to the house of the Lord.”
Peace be within your walls and quietness within your towers. --Psalm 22:1, 7
