On September 4, 1963, the church name changed to North
Highlands Baptist Church and the worship services were
initially held at Wallace Elementary School in Lake Highlands.
Under the pastorate of Rev. Gordon Thomas the original chapel
and educational wing were constructed on Church Road. The
dedication service was Sunday, February 6, 1966.

The following ten years saw worship attendance decline. As
the German population scattered so did the need for an ethnic
church.
