History
In 1880, the Mt. Zion Missionary Baptist Church broke away from the John the Baptist Church over a philosophical dispute. Reverend H.E. Jones led a campaign to construct a new church and enlisted Wallace Rayfield to design it. In 1944 and 1945, the church's Reverend R.A. Cromwell successfully challenged the all-white Democratic primary in Florida.
