Rappahannock Christian Church

About this church

Rappahannock Christian Church in Dunnsville gathers Sundays at 11:00 a.m., with recent services and livestreams archived on its worship page. Founded in 1832, the congregation first met in homes; land for a meetinghouse was conveyed in 1834, and the present Roman-influenced building opened for worship in May 1861. The sanctuary still holds historic gifts including an early Communion table, pulpit sofa, and gallery clock, giving the current service a tangible connection to nineteenth-century Tidewater faith and craftsmanship.

Children’s Worship and Wonder uses storytelling, ritual, fellowship, and age-appropriate materials to help children encounter biblical stories and respond within a worship-centered environment. Youth participate as worship leaders, serve neighbors, and take part in special services. A free fall community day brings bounce houses, games, face painting, and food to local families, while baptism and back-to-school Sundays mark important community moments. Rappahannock will appeal to someone seeking a small historic church whose children and teenagers participate visibly rather than remaining separate from congregational life. The regular service is straightforward, but current events should be checked for seasonal program pauses.
