HistoryWhat started out as sessions of spiritual counseling from an Emporia man to his brother-in-law in rural Meriden, turned into much more. Pastor Chester Furman, who was the senior director at Westside Baptist in Emporia, began driving from Emporia to Meriden in March of 2000. These regular sessions would soon become Thursday night Bible studies. Those Bible studies turned into church services which began on May 28, 2000 with a group of 10 people that were meeting in the home of Jack & Patricia Thompson. That original group quickly grew from 10 to a high of 36 within just a few months, and moved to our current location. During the last 13 years we have seen a recorded high attendance of 122. We remain a small, family oriented, traditional congregation. Teaching from the King James Bible, and holding to the music of traditional hymns with an old time southern gospel style. North Rock Baptist Temple is a missionary church, currently helping to support 23 missionaries around the world.SpecialtiesTraditional, Fundamental, Independent, Bible believing, Devil hating, Sin fighting, Baptist Church
