On June 3, 1984, Pastor Daniel Mangrum held the first service of the newly formed Cornerstone Baptist Church at Roger Heights Elementary School in Bladensburg, MD. With a small membership, God prospered this ministry to purchase 1.5 acres of land in Hyattsville, MD, for a new church. The Peaceful Bible Baptist Church was organized in February 1983 by Rev. Fred Xavier Porter. Under his leadership the church prospered and purchased a building on Old Central Avenue, in Capital Heights, MD.
