Powder Springs Missionary Baptist Church History
Powder Springs Missionary Baptist Church was founded in 1821 in a one-room log building. It was used as both a church and a school. It was placed on a track of land owned by Calvin Hickle beside the soon-to-be-built Southern Railway.
Church members decided the church could not remain at its original location in 1885 because parishioners would ride their horses, wagons and buggies to worship at the church, and when trains would pass through the area, they would scare the horses, causing them to run off in the middle of the service. The church was rebuilt a quarter of a mile from the old location on a hill. It was built of weather board and painted white, earning it the name “the white church on the hill.”
The new church, which is the current building where the members of Powder Springs Missionary Baptist Church worship, was built in 1961 for $17,221.79 after a secret ballot to repair the old church or build a new church was held. The money was collected from donations, $2,000 was borrowed from longstanding member Lettie Needham and $5,000 was borrowed from Citizens Bank and Trust Co. of Grainger County in Rutledge. The first service in the new sanctuary was held September 9, 1962 with a message to “finish the work” delivered by Rev. J. L. Qualls. The church was paid for in full January 1967 and was celebrated with a note-burning.
