Zion Primitive Baptist Church

Whatever my disagreements with the Primitive Baptists, I found this picture and the accompanying paragraph from Zion Primitive Church on Facebook warm and reassuring. I appreciate Zion's simplicity. I often think about this when I go into old churches, and sometimes I believe that I can feel the weight of the prayers of all of the oppressed people who have been there before me and their guidance or concern for me.


This is the sanctuary of Zion Primitive Baptist Church. There have been many who have sat in these pews over the last 34 years. Saints, who desired a little place to worship in Spirit and Truth. Before this sanctuary was built, they met in a conference room of Georgia Power and in living rooms singing praises to God for the love He expressed through His only begotten Son, the Lord Jesus Christ.
For those who have been worshipping at Zion for a long time, they can look out over the pews and see the faces of those who have gone to be with the Lord. This was a special place for them and is special to us, it is where we come together and worship our Creator, through our Savior.
Come and see.
