The church grew out of the missionary work of Free Will Baptists in this part of India, which started in 1836. In 1911 the Free Will Baptists handed the work over to the American Baptist Foreign Mission Society.

The status of this member church is being clarified. No updated information is available. The numbers of membership and local churches are taken from the World Christian Encyclopedia and date from 1995.
