In 1969, the historic church building was sold to the First Portuguese Baptist Church, founded in 1932 for bi-lingual worship services in English and Portuguese. The congregation was renamed the Baptist Church of All Nations in 1977.[3] The historic 1897 church was later demolished and replaced with a new building.
