Landmark Baptist Church of Waller

1418 Key Street

History :

Landmark Baptist Church began in December of 1998 when the Shady Acres Baptist Church of Houston, Texas commissioned a church plant in the northwest suburb of Hockley. Dr. Ed DeVries was called as pastor of the Hockley church and the name Landmark Baptist Church was chosen.

The First Service of the Landmark Baptist Church was held on Easter Sunday 1999 at the Robert's Road Elementary School in Hockley. The church met in the school auditorium for six months.

Since there was no suitable building available for lease/rent in Hockley, the church relocated to nearby Waller (just 7 miles NW of Robert's Road Elementary) in September of 1999. The church met in a storefront located at 2416 Main Street in Waller until October 2000.

In November of 2000 the church moved into the former Grace Methodist Church building located at 1418 Key Street in Waller. The all brick structure, built in 1960, has provided the church with a 150+ seat auditorium, 2 nurseries, several Sunday school rooms, office space, a fellowship hall, and a fenced-in play ground.

On June 3rd the Church called Bro. Ken Barber as her Pastor. Dr. DeVries was given the title of Pastor Emeritus and serves as the church's Staff Evangelist.
