Abstract:
The Erste Deutche Baptisten Kirche (First German Baptist Church) was established at 7th and Winnebago Streets in La Crosse, Wisconsin in 1893. The church remained in that building until 1949, when they moved to a building on 7th and Ferry Streets. In 1945, the First German Baptist Church became the 7th Street Baptist Church, and in the mid-1950s became the Bible Baptist Church. Bible Baptist Church was affiliated with the North American Baptists, and disbanded in 2009.

Materials in the Bible Baptist Church records include photographs and textual materials from deconstructed church scrapbooks, newspaper clippings and short memoirs describing church history and two German prayer books from the 1800s. No sacramental records are included in this collection.
