About this church
Market Street Church of Christ has met in Athens since 1884 and worships at 514 West Market Street. Sunday begins with Bible classes at 9:45 a.m., followed by morning worship at 10:30 a.m. and evening worship at 5 p.m. A Wednesday Bible study meets at 6:30 p.m. The congregation describes its worship as reverent and plain: singing is a cappella, the Lord's Supper is observed every Sunday, prayers are offered by members, and a minister presents a Bible lesson. Visitors are not expected to contribute to the offering.
The church describes itself as about 165 people from many walks of life, including children, younger parents, and older members. The website posts recent lessons, offers live streaming of lessons, and provides a podcast and calendar subscription. A radio program called Beacon of Truth and a newsletter called the Market Street Messenger are also listed. Yearly events include an annual congregational singing night in late February, gospel meetings with visiting speakers in spring and fall, and a summer Vacation Bible School. Visitors with questions can send a message or ask a question through the website. Confirm times on the website before visiting.
