OUR HISTORY
The rich history of Rocky Mount Church...
...reaches back over 150 years, to 1852 when the church was founded at the same location it still occupies today. The original one-room log building housed the 37 charter members of Rocky Mount and within 20 years the congregation completed work on a second building. In 1928, the church opened the doors of “the little white church” after fire destroyed the sanctuary. The church continued to expand throughout the early part of the twentieth century, and new additions were built to accommodate the growth. In 1978, the church completed construction on the previous building. The church took on a new configuration in 2006 when the education wing and fellowship hall were built to serve more than 400 children who attend Rocky Mount Church.
To accommodate even more growth, a larger, new sanctuary was built on the same location as the previous one, along with new offices, Sunday School rooms, and a Youth and Children’s Ministry area. Rocky Mount Church held services at NASCAR Technical Institute for over two years and still continued to grow its membership.
We held our first service in our current beautiful sanctuary on Palm Sunday 2017. The congregation of Rocky Mount Church has grown and changed over the years. By the late 1990’s the church had grown to nearly 500 members and today, Rocky Mount Church opens its doors to over 1,000 people every week, and the congregation now includes over 800 church members who serve in their church, their community, and around the world.
As Rocky Mount Church continues to expand, its mission - Transforming religion into a relationship with Jesus Christ one person at a time - is always still our main priority.
We welcome you to become part of our vibrant, loving community and to help us write the next chapter in the proud history of Rocky Mount Church!
