Antioch Baptist Church, Baptist church in St. Paul's Bottoms, Shreveport, United States.

Antioch Baptist Church is a red-brick church with white trim at 1057 Texas Avenue in Shreveport. It was designed by Nathaniel Sykes Allen and dedicated in 1903, and it was renovated in 1943 and 1958.

The congregation formed in 1866 when a group of Black members separated to establish their own church. The building was completed in 1903, marking an important moment in the community's development.

The congregation's name changed twice: it was first called the First Colored Baptist Church of Shreveport, then Union Missionary Baptist Church soon after the 1903 dedication, and finally Antioch Baptist Church. In 1906 it joined the National Baptist Convention, USA, Inc., the largest African American Baptist body in the country.

The church stands at 1057 Texas Avenue, in the St. Paul's Bottoms historic district; its red brick and white trim face the street, so the exterior can be seen from the sidewalk. For the interior, attend a service or arrange a visit with the congregation beforehand.

The 1903 building replaced a structure destroyed by a storm during construction; the congregation rebuilt it for $3,198.45. It was designed by Nathaniel Sykes Allen and dedicated at 1057 Texas Avenue. In 1982 the church was listed on the National Register of Historic Places, and on July 9, 1999 it became a contributing property of the expanded St. Paul's Bottoms historic district.
