Center Grove began in the spring of 1914 with a group of cotton and tobacco farmers gathering under a brush arbor in a place known as Snow Hill, located behind a farm on what is now known as Center Grove Church Road.

They were the practical “get it done” kind of people. With land donated from one family, and lumber from another, they built their first worship center, a chapel, by hand.

Great community church with parking lot to launch your cycling tours.

The church has a nice history which began in 1914. Cotton and tobacco farmers used to gather here and they eventually gathered momentum to somehow build a house of god. Over the last 25 years it has seen its flock explode from 50 to over 800 worshippers. It has a good size car park to start your bike ride from and you can pray for a PB at the same time!
