Winkler Road Baptist Church was started in 1969 as the Fort Myers Baptist Temple. In 1971 land was purchased on Winkler Road and ground breaking ceremonies were held April 4, 1971. In 1980 the name of the church was changed to Winkler Road Baptist Church. On the first Sunday of February, 1986 Pastor Don Strange came as pastor. God has blessed Winkler Road under his ministry and is reaching Fort Myers with the gospel as well as throughout the world by means of faith-promise missions giving. Winkler Road supports over 160 missionaries around the world.
