 History

In 1871, as a part of the bicentennial celebration of the first Seventh Day Baptist church in America, five associations "adopted with great unanimity, a proposition and plan for raising funds for educational and other denominational purposes." General Conference unanimously accepted the plan with a target of $100,000.
