Faith Baptist Church came into existence on December 31, 1969, meeting in the Lawn and Garden Center directly across the road from the Prairie Inn on Highway 281.
Charter members were: Clarence and Ann Cook, Jim Cook, Perry and Clara Pepple, Lowell and Eleanor Leppke, Cynthia Leppke, Albert and Emma Leppke, Arnold and Mary Leppke, James and Kerrine Oshanyk, and Wallace and Loetta Sellner.
The Church purchased land from Rex Miller in 1971 for the purpose of building a church building and a parsonage. The parsonage was completed in October 1971.
On October 1972 bids were submitted for the purchase of Germantown Baptist Church, which was located north of Cathay on Highway 15. The bid of $1500 was accepted. This was the cost of the building in 1892. The church building was moved to Carrington onto the corner of 2nd Ave. Northeast and Faith Road in December 1972. The first service was December 18, 1972, which was the first Sunday School Christmas program.
A dedication service was held June 10, 1973, dedicating the Church to the Lord. Approximately 200 people attended.
