Our History

Parkers Mill Road Baptist Church
|
Parkers Mill Road Baptist Church began as a
mission arm of the Langdon Street Baptist
Church of Somerset, Kentucky with 12
members. The mission received endorsement
from the Langdon Street Baptist Church to
begin the work on January 8, 1975. In
January, 1975, land was acquired and a
temporary building was constructed. The
first worship service was conducted on the
last Sunday morning in February, 1975.

By April, 1975, it became necessary to build
an addition to the temporary structure to
serve as Sunday School rooms. The mission
eventually grew into a fully self-supporting
work. The Parkers Mill Road Baptist Mission
became the Parkers Mill Road Baptist Church
in an organizational service that was held
on September 26, 1976, with one hundred
eleven members. On December 1, 1976, the
church voted to proceed with plans for a new
building. The new building was completed in
October, 1978. The first service was held in
the new building on Sunday, November 5,
1978.
