For a short time, the congregation met in Mrs. Collins' barn. On October 16, 1908, the church was organized with 29 charter members. The Conerstone was laid on March 23, 1908, and the church was dedicated
October 16, 1909.
Our first preacher was Benjamin Graham. The third preacher was Mrs. Collins' father, William A. Clarke.
We have had serving this church since 1908 thirty-one preachers until our present pastor Randy Walworth and his wife Jennifer.
They have been serving the church since 2003.
Our church has remained steadfast through the rise and fall of the economy, through the Civil War, World War I, World War II, and the subsequent wars,
through increases in the population and the final annexation of this area by the city of Atlanta.
We have survived times of prosperity and through the awful depression that struck this nation.
During the time of our existence, we have had a thriving community which drew children of all ages, with a grammar school
(Bolton School, the oldest grammar school in Atlanta), and high school which was first Fulton High School and
later West Fulton High School.
During 1923 or 1924, our church had its highest enrollment of approximately 500 members. In the past few years, because of the erosion of our community, it has dropped to the present membership enrollment of approximately 100 members.
Also during our existence, we have supported all of the church organizations including Sunday School departments, from kindergarten through
the old people's Bible school. We have had as many as 6 or 8 indvidual Sunday School classes.
Our Chapel is certainly one of the most beautiful in all of the city of Atlanta. It features beautiful windows which
support some 500 tongues of flame representing the spirit of Jesus Christ, three major windows showing Christ knocking at the door,
Christ the gentle Shepherd, and an angel pointing to an empty tomb at Easter time.
