Our History: Our church was organized in 1939, following a very successful revival hel by Rev. O.D.
Mullen. There were 34 charter members. Rev. George Grant was the first pastor. Bro. Max Clark was
clerk, and Bro. Cole Cannon was the first deacon. Services were held in the old schoolhouse. In 1948
Noah Cannon donated the land, and with donated timber, lumber and labor, the first church building
was constructed. Later, Sunday School rooms were added, followed by the restrooms and nursery. The
fellowship hall was added in 1995.
Special Ministries:
- Helping Hands - This organization was formed in January of 1992. Eleven excited women met at
the first meeting. Now, with over twenty members, their main objective is to do acts of service for
the church and people in need. They have purchased items for the sanctuary, kitchen, new
addition, and parsonage. On the first weekend in December they have a bake sale and
Christmas bazaar. They host an additional bake sale at Easter.
- Children's Church - Under the direction of Melissa Altom, we now have a Children's Handbell
Choir. They have performed on several occasions and do an outstanding job.
