About Us:
History:
Grand Cane Baptist Church was constituted in 1855 with a reported 100 members. By 1882, the church was meeting in Mrs. Davidson's home. A house of worship was desparately needed resulting in the building of a church in 1883 with ten members on the role.
An annex was completed in 1956 to house an office, a bathroom, a baptistry, and Sunday School rooms.
Thirty years passed and in 1985, Dr. Walter Platt donated land to build another annex to house a kitchen more restrooms, more Sunday School classes, and a large meeting room known as the Fellowship Hall.
Twelve years later, the need for a larger sanctuary was evident. The wonderfully historical original sanctuary was blended with a new sanctuary in 1997.
A Family Life Center across Fifth Street was added in 2007 with a gym, kitchen, church parlor, and more classrooms in recent years - providing a wonderful place for Sunday night Connect services, banquets, Vacation Bible School, and other events - such as our annual rummage sale that benefits missions.
The former Fellowship Hall has been renovated into a nursery and kid's classrooms area - known as KIDZONE. The nursery is located in this area.
Recently redecorated office space brightens up the day for Amy and the Pastors.
The WMU ladies donated money - which has been used to decorate a Church Parlor in the FLC for bridal and baby showers, classes, private counseling, and various meetings in a home-like atmosphere.
