Reading Church of The Brethren

About this church

Reading Church of the Brethren worships every Sunday at 10:30 a.m. at 25418 Georgetown Road near Homeworth in Knox Township, Columbiana County. The service is also available through the congregation’s ReadingCOB channels on Facebook and YouTube. Its mission joins worship and fellowship with sharing God’s word and caring for people in both the congregation and surrounding community.

The church’s history preserves details uncommon in directory profiles. Sunday School began with ten classes in 1896, and early council minutes document a community in which members supplied money or food when neighbors were in need. The congregation connects that inherited practice of mutual care with its present identity. Its rural location is described in relation to both Alliance and Salem, helping visitors understand the drive before setting out. Reading offers a simple first-visit plan—one consistent Sunday hour, an in-person gathering outside Homeworth, and simultaneous online access—but the historical record gives that simplicity depth. Someone comparing Church of the Brethren congregations can see a long-standing emphasis on peaceful fellowship, practical care, worship, and community witness rather than a generic rural-church listing.
