Young men from the college at Henderson often came to lead the worship services.� Gospel meetings were a frequent occurrence, and they often lasted for two or three weeks.� When brother T.B. Larrimore came for a meeting, services were conducted for an entire month.
Other notable speakers in gospel meetings have been J.D. Tant, Foy E. Wallace, Jr., Ira Doublin, G.C. Brewer and Guy N. Woods.
The congregation met in the brick building at 718 Highland until 1955.� Then they occupied a new building at the corner of Allen and Edgewood Streets.� During the past years these Christians, under the faithful and capable leadership of elders, have preached the simple truth of New Testament Christianity and emphasized mission works in numerous places throughout the world.� At Home, the congregation was a leader in the establishment of the West Tennessee Children?s Home.� It has also encouraged many young preachers from Freed-Hardeman University by having them work with the church.� Some of these include Steve Parsons, Eddie Miller, Gene Gilliland, Gary Hampton, Les Jackson, Ken Kilpatrick, Cameron Traw, Andy Masters,Kelcy Hahn, David Powell, Miles Mayo, and Nathan Kidwell.� All of these worked with the educational department which was under the direction of James Mahaffy who served as Educational Director from 1966-1968.
Local ministers have served this congregation well.� They were T.M. Carney (1912), John T. Smith, C.S. Austin, W.S.Long, L.S. Lancaster, F.O. Howell, W.T. Hines, E.R. Harper, A.S.Landis, L.M. Coop, H.A. Dixon, Frank Van Dyke, O.D. Johns, George Tipps, Don Gardner, Flavil Nichols, Hugh Fulford, Carmack Skelton, Van Stewart, Charles McDonald, Phillip A. Dunn, Billy Watson, and Russell Cook.� Our present Ministers are David Powell and Kelby Smith. Shawn Montandon now servers as an intern.
In March 1989, the church moved to a new facility located at the corner of Highway 45 Bypass and Oil Well Road, with a goal of serving the needs of the rapidly growing North Jackson area.� In the past seven years we have distributed more than 22,000 tracts in the immediate area, which has been canvassed five times.
In the summer of 1996, we moved into a new 1,000 seat auditorium at the same location.�
The brightest segment of our history is yet to come and we hope includes you.
