Good Hope
Congregational Christian Church was organized in 1810 in Granville County,
North Carolina. The original church was an old log school building.
Revival meetings were held out of doors under brush arbors for more
space.
Good Hope voted to join the United Church of Christ along with the other
Congregational Christian Churches in 1962. In 1969, the church body
voted to cease active participation in and support of the United Church
of Christ. On June 3, 1979, Good Hope obtained membership in the Southern
Baptist State Convention.
The church voted in 1985 to start a building fund for a new, larger
church. On October 12, 1986, groundbreaking ceremonies were held and
the new church building was occupied in the summer of 1987.
Today, Good Hope is looking toward building a family life center to
even better facilitate serving the community and spreading the good
news of the redeeming love of Jesus Christ.
