Rocky Mount Primitive Baptist Church

About this church

Rocky Mount Church, formally Rocky Mount Primitive Baptist Church, meets at 2237 Guntersville Road in Arab, Alabama. Worship is held every Sunday at 10:30 a.m. The congregation describes its gatherings as simple: singing, prayer, and preaching and teaching from Scripture by the pastor and other elders. Men, women, and children of all ages worship together in the same service, and the church often highlights families sitting and learning side by side. Rocky Mount was established in 1882 and belongs to the Mt. Zion Association of Primitive Baptists, which it relies on for fellowship and visitation among like-minded churches instead of a central headquarters.

A Bible study meets on Wednesday evenings at 6:30 p.m., and a fellowship lunch is held on the first Sunday of each month. A communion service takes place three times a year, on the first weekend of January, May, and September, held either Saturday evening or Sunday afternoon. Afterward, those present wash one another's feet. For anyone who wants to hear the preaching before visiting, the website offers audio sermons, a link to watch a livestream, and a 30-minute radio program called The Grace and Mercy Hour, drawn mostly from Sunday morning messages. The site also has a photo album of the building and congregation. Visitors should confirm times on the church website, particularly for communion weekends.
