Pennepack Baptist Church
The Amazing Drama Behind Pennepack Baptist
Welcome to the story behind Pennepack Baptist Church, established in 1688, and now in its 320th year of ministry. It was the 8th Baptist church to be started in America, and the 7th oldest still surviving. When the church began, composers Johann Sebastian Bach and Frederick Handel were 3-year old toddlers. Hymn-writer Isaac Watts was just a lad of 14. Revivalist Jonathan Edwards, so instrumental in setting the foundation for ‘The Great Awakening’ would not be born for another 15 years, Benjamin Franklin two years after him, and George Washington 26 more years after Franklin.
The Pilgrims had only landed 68 years earlier. Banks had only been using checks for 7 years, firemen only had the use of flexible hoses for 16 years, and watches only had minute hands for 18 years. These are the statistics and they are amazing, but they are not the story. And the story is always more exciting than the statistics. Every good story has a good beginning. Pennepack Baptist has a wonderful beginning to its story, especially due to the many varied influences that fed into the stream that became Pennepack Baptist Church.
These influences were Divine, of course, and human, political, geographical and with a touch of Shakespearean-like drama, as we shall see. Here is a brief telling of the unique story of that drama that led to the founding of Pennepack Baptist Church and the Philadelphia Baptist Association. In the mid-1630’s, a man named Roger Williams took off into the Massachusetts woods banished from preaching and any involvement in the Massachusetts Bay Colony due to his dissenting views—including his conviction that no one should be persecuted for holding dissenting or different religious opinions. In 1638, he would help establish the first Baptist church in the new world in the town of Providence in what would be the colony of Rhode Island. In its charter, the colony would grant freedom of conscience and religion, something not so granted in either England or Massachusetts. Forty-six years later, in 1684, the Rev. Thomas Dungan, originally from Ireland, would leave Rhode Island and travel south to bring a Baptist presence to a place where similar freedom of worship and conscience was being established. Dungan would die four years later and the church he started at Cold Springs near the Delaware River would only survive until 1702. However, the events that he would take part in his final year of life on earth would certainly be viewed as a crowning experience of his life and could easily be argued that his ‘Divine appointment’ was to be the right man, in the right place, at the right time.
The place that Rev. Dungan moved to was called ‘Penn’s Woods’ or Pennsylvania. An English Quaker named William Penn had received a land grant from Charles II in lieu of money that the King had owed his father. Penn set up his ‘Holy Experiment’, as he called it, in 1682, erecting the Village of Philadelphia and opening the colony’s doors to all who would seek to be free of religious oppression. Many from Wales, England, and Ireland came over, among them a group of Welsh farmers who settled north and east of the village. These men and women, Baptist in their convictions, along with other Irish and English of the same mindset, would become principle characters in the first act of the drama we alluded to earlier.
The stage was now set. Most of the characters were in position, it awaited only the ‘Chief Actor’ to appear on the stage [that term being chosen very purposefully here]. To build some anticipation for his entrance a little background is needed.
In the year 1640, Benjamin Keach was born in England. In his teen years he would be baptized into the Baptist branch of the Christian faith tree and at age 18 would become a preacher. In 1666, the year of the great London fire, he and his wife had a son whom they named Elias [Elias being another version of the name Elijah, the passionate and fiery prophet of the Old Testament]. Perhaps great hopes had been laid upon Elias’ tiny head, to carry the mantle of this great man of God.
Benjamin would himself become a champion of Baptist ideals and opposition to religious oppression, seeing his books burned and spending time in prison and in the Pillory [known also as ‘The Stocks’, with his head and hands enclosed]. Much has been written about Rev. Benjamin Keach, but not much is known about Elias’ early life.
What we do know is that Elias eventually sailed across the ocean to land in William Penn’s new colony in 1686, a twenty-year old young man in whose suitcase was a black robe and a white band. Why did he come to the new world? Did he come over to escape persecution in England and to be free to worship God as he pleased, as his father had taught? Was he sent here by dad to begin a Baptist work so that there could be a father/son trans-Atlantic connection in the spread of Baptist principles and influences? Or,
