History
The Grace Baptist
Church recently celebrated her 57th Anniversary. The church began
in 1950 under the ministry of Rev. O.H. Page. He was followed in 1953
by Rev. Ralph Liles, who was followed by Rev. J.T. McCracken in 1957.
Rev. McCracken served as Pastor until 1969. After the ministry of
Bro. McCracken, Rev. H.T. Ashby helped the church greatly serving as interim
pastor. He was later followed in the fall of 1970 by the present Pastor,
Rev. Marvin Carson.
Grace Baptist Church is an Independent Baptist Church.
Our purpose is to glorify our Lord Jesus Christ through every outreach.
We endeavor to win souls to Christ through the gospel of Christ and then to
disciple every believer through the teaching and preaching of the Word of
God and through the believers' fellowship one with another. Some of
the ways of accomplishing this purpose are through an active youth ministry,
an all-Bible Sunday School, a bus and van ministry, children's churches, monthly
support of foreign missionaries, etc.
