CHURCH HISTORY

The "Church" is the society, the fellowship, the community of all those who draw together in love through their faith in Christ. The history is the record of events that happened in the past, thus being the roots from which the Mount Moriah Baptist Church sprouted in the year 1881.
The first services were held from house to house, and as the Lord blessed His children, a "brush-harbor" was built of the pine trees that surrounded them. By the grace of God, the members continued to strive to raise money to build a new sanctuary. With Christ as the Chief Cornerstone, the building was completed. Upon completion, the name "Mt. Moriah Missionary Baptist Church" was suggested and all agreed. Over the years, the church building has been rebuilt three times, and the congregation has relocated once.
From our first shepherd, Pastor Mason Harrison, to our recent pastor, Michael D. Woods, each has made great efforts to lead us according to the Word of God.
By placing our trust in Christ, and with the thought "Follow me as I follow Christ," from the year 1881 to the present time, many faithful members and friends have worked and served here. The Mt. Moriah Baptist Church family has grown, and we are looking forward to a brighter and more productive future.
On June 9th of 1996, after 115 years at our original location, we celebrated our move to our current church home at 1983 Brockett Road in Tucker, Georgia.
With continuous prayer, faith in God's Word, obedience and continuous teaching by the pastor, associate ministers and our other ministry leaders, this church will continue to grow and be productive in the proclamation of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
