Our Story
Baconton Missionary Baptist Church like most Negro churches of the late 1800's answered to the need of former slaves to " pick and choose their praying ground." In 1869 God moved upon the hearts of the Reverend W.M. Quarterman. Deacons Julius Rogers, Joe Howell, P.M Mciver, Flanders Pray and Will Bacon and they along with 35 members began this church. The Church continues to stand at the crossroads of Dunlevie and Talmadge Roads reminding travelers that Jesus is the way. Baconton is located in Liberty County, approximately 7 miles from Fort Stewart, Georgia. Rev. Hermon Scott now serves the congregation as its eighteenth pastor.
The Baconton Church family has weathered many storms over the years and today we stand boldly and sing "Oh Victory in Jesus My Savior forever..." We have experienced rapid growth over the past few years both physically and spiritually. We have seen God answers prayer after prayer. We rejoice at each victory as we are reminded that God is faithful. There is no doubt in our mind that we can build a Holy Ghost Led community of loving relationships where we daily love, follow and model Jesus. We invite you to join us as we pray " Lord breathe fresh on us." If you do not know Jesus as your Savior and Lord we invite you to read the following facts:
1. All have sinned and fallen short of God's Glory (Romans 3:23)
2. Sin Brings Death But God has a gift of life (Romans 6:23).
3. God Loved us so much that He gave His Son to die for our gift of life (Roman 5:8)
4. In order to receive your gift of life you must believe that Jesus died for your sins and declare that you accept Him as Savior (Romans 10:9).
If you would like to accept Jesus now please pray the following prayer: Dear God, I know I have sinned and I am asking for your forgiveness. I believe Jesus died for my sins and I now accept your offer of salvation. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.
We encourage you to find a church home. If you are in the Hinesville, Georgia area please visit one of our services
