Church History
Vernon Grove Baptist Church was established in
the year of our Lord and Savior (1878). The church birthday date
is May 24, which on its last birthday the church turned 131 year
old.
During this time and course of the ministry, Vernon Grove
Baptist Church also operated as a schoolhouse with the grade
ranging from first grade to seventh grade. Many of our members
attended the school at that time.
In the rear of the church, there is a cemetery. Some of the head
stone that can be seen is dated from the year 1800 and earlier.
Many pioneers has enter this sanctuary and left a mark in this
historical church, such as (18) Pastor's, many Deacon's and
layperson's. Who have been taught both economically, and
spiritually concerning man way and God way.
The vision of the Vernon Grove Baptist church is to Reach, Teach
and Equip whosoever it may be, to be productive bold members of
the community. Serving into whatever capacity they deem
necessary to make thing work for the good of him who has sent
them.
Vernon Grove motto is found in the scripture of our Lord and
Savior Jesus Christ in the book of Proverb 3 chapter verses 5/6,
which say *Trust in the Lord with all your heart, lean not on
your own understanding. But in all your way acknowledge him, and
he will direct your path.
The church doors swing open on welcome hinges. Come and be a
part of our Worship.
God Bless You
