    Tips

    January 10, 2023

    Founded in 1755, the Independent Presbyterian Church was originally called The Presbyterian Church and is considered to be the mother of Georgia Presbyterianism. With more than 250 years of history and authentic beauty, the church offers a special experience to people of all faiths. When a hurricane damaged the church in the 1800’s, plans were made to reconstruct it to its original condition. Today, guests to the church can see the marble baptism font which was hauled in wagons pulled by oxen from New Jersey and the rich mahogany pulpit that was used to preach many meaningful sermons—both original items that survived various destructive events. The Independent Presbyterian Church can also be seen in the movie Forrest Gump, when a white feather floats across the tall steeple.
