Tabernacle of Praise began as a youth/young adult choir (for people ages 17 through 29) in April 1990. Rev. Joseph McDowell established the choir. He saw a need for a choir that would give the youth and young adults of the city of Baltic something to do. One of Rev. McDowell's friends, Rev. Franklin Jones, became the vice-president of the choir. The choir began to grow rapidly. By November 1990, the choir had reached over 300 members. The Tabernacle of Praise Choir needed some financial backing. This backing was obtained when Rev. Carl A. Adams of Maddocha Beach saw the choir perform at a musical in the city of Maddocha Beach. Rev. Adams was impressed by the choirs' dedication and commitment. He became a member of the Board of Directors. The choir continued to grow. Many of the members of the choir who were not saved when they joined the choir, got saved and filled with the Holy Ghost. In April 1994, the choir had over 500 members. The choir held prayer revival services conducted by Evg. Rick MaCulvie every four months. During on of the choirs' prayer revivals, Evg. MaCulvie prophesied to Rev.
