Go out to farm and ranch land, on FM-362, off the main highway, and down a gravel and dirt road, more than half a mile, and you will find Pleasant Hill Baptist Church. According to the Grimes County Historical Society, this church was built by the black residents of the now defunct town of Retreat, Texas., in the late 1800’s.
Pleasant Hill Baptist Church is a beautifully built structure with two towers, white clapboard planks, and stain glass windows. The church and the house right beside the church, both need some tender loving care. It would be a shame to let this old sanctuary go into even move disrepair.
