Evergreen Baptist Church was formed in 1879 when several of our forefathers were granted permission from Concord Baptist Church to leave and form a new church in this community.  Through their efforts and those of many to follow, we have been truly blessed to be where we are today.
 

In the early days, meetings were held in an old log house with hog house doors at each end.  Then in 1922, the frame church building was built.  As time would pass, stained glass windows were installed.  In the early 50's the existing sanctuary was built.
 

Our fellowship hall was added in the mid 1970's, and we have added an educational wing that was dedicated in April of 1992.
 

From the vision of just a few people in 1880 until now, Evergreen Baptist Church has continued to worship the Lord with gladness.  As of year 1998 there have been 18 pastors who have been fortunate enough to have led this church.  May we continue to serve our Lord.
