Could a church founded in 1979 truly be a beacon of hope for over 100 years? Here at Mount Vernon Primitive Baptist Church, this apparent contradiction unravels. Mount Vernon Primitive Baptist Church, a cornerstone of faith in Tampa, was indeed established in 1979. It was founded by Brother L.B. Hordge and Mother Maggie R. Hordge. However, the church’s building has a much longer history in West Tampa. It has served as a place of worship and community for over a century, witnessing generations of faith, hope, and resilience. The current structure, in need of repairs, stands as a testament to the enduring spirit of the community. Mount Vernon Primitive Baptist Church remains a vibrant hub of spiritual life. It is led by Pastor Larry B. Hordge Sr., son of the founders. The church continues to be a place where lives are transformed and God’s love is shared, echoing the hopes and dreams of those who came before.
