    Missionary work began in St. John's, Antigua, on 19 May 1984, when President Kenneth Zabriskie of the West Indies Mission visited the governor of Antigua and received permission to station missionaries on the island.

    The first missionaries, Elder Ralph and Sister Aileen Tate, arrived on 28 July 1984. The first member of the Church was baptized in St. John's on 15 September 1984.

    The Church grew to about 70 members in 1995.
