Organized on July 14, 1832 with 43 members, the church later purchased its Johnston and Fourth Street site in 1898, began construction in 1902, and completed a new sanctuary in 1949 after a 1942 fire destroyed the building. Its stated mission is “Worship God. Teach the Word. Serve Our Community.” Sunday mornings include Sunday School classes at 9:19 AM and Gathering and Morning Worship at 10:15 AM. The church also offers children’s ministry, youth group, small groups, Sunday youth group at 4:00 PM, and various Wednesday activities at 6:00 PM.
