The Centennial Baptist Church is a historic church building at the corner of York and Columbia Streets in Helena, Arkansas. It is significant for its association with Elias Camp Morris (1855-1922), who was the pastor of the church from 1879 and who was a driving force in the establishment of the National Baptist Convention, USA, Inc. Morris served as the convention's president from 1895 until his death, and his church served functionally as the organization's headquarters.[3] The church was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1987, and was declared a National Historic Landmark in 2003.[2][3][4]
The church was severely damaged by high winds on April 12, 2020 in the 2020 Easter tornado outbreak.[5]
