Our Church History

Our church first started meeting as a bible study group in the Quitman Wood County National Bank. The Bible study met on an odd weeknight so as not to be in competition with normal church services being held here in town. To lay a firm foundation they went through Finding The Rock classes and other studies. As interest for the church grew; and almost 9 months to the day, in the banks meeting room our church was born.

The first service was held on September 11, 1983, at Maranatha Retreat Center just outside of town.

After about a year, the retreat center was sold, and the church was given two weeks to find a new location. At that time there was early-morning prayer every weekday morning and all were praying fervently for a new location. As the senior pastor and others were seeking God, the pastor began to pray very specific prayers about the new location for the church. He wanted it to be on Main street here in Quitman. The Lord answered our prayers quickly and as a result, an old warehouse came on the market. That old warehouse has now been turned into the beautiful facility we have today. We later added the educational building and most recently the property on 302 South Stephens street, which houses our fellowship hall and several para ministries like Celebrate Recovery and Meals On Wheels.

We Are an inter-denominational church, where people are welcomed from all types of backgrounds and denominations.

Our Goal is to help everyone from our youngest child to our oldest adult, discover the purposes for which God has planned and shaped their life.

Our Desire is to provide a place where you can meet new friends, discover your life’s purpose, and learn how to live a life that has a lasting impact. Life isn’t meant to be lived alone…join us this weekend!
