The organization of the Antioch Baptist Church began with a vision by the late Rev. J. N. Robinson in 1929. On September 17th, 1931, a small group of people met in the home of Rev. Robinson at 248 Purdy Street, Buffalo, New York. Each week the group, called the Prayer Band, met for prayer services and by 1932 had outgrown the apartment; a small church had formed. Rev. Robinson financed and worked diligently restoring a rundown house at 264 Purdy Street. Upon completion, a small yet beautiful place of worship had formed. On the second Sunday in May of 1932, the Prayer Band moved into a new church home and began having Sunday school and Sunday morning worship services. Not long after, on November 20th, 1932, the church officially organized and Rev. Robinson proclaimed that body of believers to be called the Antioch Baptist Church.
