Where We Come From

Our Story

TDBC was established by a group of railway workers in November 1903, as the locomotive depot moved from Sale to Traralgon. These men were members of Sale Baptist Church who sought to create a Baptist fellowship in their new home.

The Church began meeting in a mechanics hall, later merging with Cumberland Park in 1958. This allowed for the purchase of the Kay Street site and the relocation of the Church Hall to Grey Street. Our current buildings were established on this site in 1967.

Our vision: to be God’s people – growing in knowledge and faith in Christ together – so his love and power is revealed through prayer, discipleship and faithful witness as we serve our community.
