ABOUT OUR CHURCH

For over 134 years, the Tabernacle Baptist Church has been an essential part of the Petersburg Community.  Originating in an old, framed house at 427 Jones Street, Tabernacle, like the Old Ship of Zion, has emerged as a spiritual haven for “many a thousand”.

ABOUT OUR PASTOR

Dr. Robert A. Diggs, Sr. is a native of Mathews, Virginia. He is the son of Frances V. Diggs and the late Robert E. Diggs of Cardinal, VA. He attended public school there and worshipped in the Zion Baptist Church where Rev. Dr. W. R. Henderson baptized him. Having graduated high school as a State Champion Half Miler, he  was recruited by Norfolk State College to run track. 

And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching."

Hebrews 10:24-25
