The official website for Altadena Baptist Church is https://www.altadenabaptist.org
I (your webmaster) am making this historical site as a place to keep information that may not be pertinent to the main website. Since we now have little that has survived the Eaton fire in January 2025, what we can find needs to be preserved.
The two books below, and the History of the Pastoral Leadership at ABC, are the beginning. As I find more, and have time, there will be more to add.
2009 was the 75th anniversary of the church. In the interests of preserving our history, two of the earliest books (from 1st Baptist) were scanned.
The “title” won’t mean much, your webmaster just needed a way to describe the books.
BlackBookBlueBinding (12.7megs) – Rev Clinton Goodwin kept a book with clippings in it. There’s also some receipts for utilities, nominating committee recommendations, and a couple pictures.
allBrownBook (3,5megs) – The first minutes book, kept b R.N. Martin, first clerk. Also includes the first membership record, and attendance figures.
