In 1836 the mission and Indians were removed to Gull Prairie. The next year after their removal, 1837, the first Baptist Church was organized in Grand Rapids, composed of immigrants to the Territory. It was gathered by the efforts of Rev. S. D. Wooster, and contained seven members. Their names should be preserved: Dea. Henry Stone, Thomas Davis, Ezekiel W. Davis, Abram Randall and wife, Zelotes Bemis and Mr. Streeter, all of whom have passed away. Mr. Wooster remained with the Church but a short time, and for the next four or five years they were without a pastor. Several of the members moved away, and the Church virtually became extinct.
