We welcome you to the Olivet Institutional Baptist Church Web site and we invite you to learn more about how God has blessed this household faith for 77 years.
We invite you to use the site to learn more about our historic legacy of teaching, preaching and practicing the unconditional love of Jesus Christ.
We hope this Web site encourages you to visit us and connect with us as we continue to serve this present age under the leadership of our new Pastor, Rev. Jawanza Karriem Colvin.
In the words of our Pastor Emeritus, Rev. Dr. Otis Moss Jr., "When you come to Olivet take your time leaving, but in God's name, hurry back."
May God bless you.
