Red Oak Grove Church of the Brethren

About this church

Red Oak Grove Church of the Brethren holds Sunday worship at 11:00 a.m. at 775 Red Oak Grove Road NE in Floyd, with music beginning at 10:45. The service is traditional and includes congregational singing, prayer, a children’s story, preaching, and a closing hymn of invitation. Wednesday Bible study at 7:00 p.m. is more informal, with discussion, shared reading, coffee, and snacks.

The congregation was formally organized in 1870, and its present building began taking shape in 1905 after the original church was removed. The official history records a decidedly local construction story: timber came from the church grove and oxen hauled the logs to the sawmill. Later additions brought a basement, Sunday School rooms, heating, restrooms, and choir lofts while the rural Floyd County setting remained. Red Oak Grove’s mission language emphasizes that the church is its people rather than merely the building, and its newsletter and event tools help visitors follow current community life. For a first trip, the musical prelude time, predictable traditional order, children’s moment, and casual midweek study provide an unusually clear contrast between Sunday worship and the smaller Wednesday gathering.
