Zion Hill Baptist Church

More Info

General Info

Formed by a group of eight former slaves in a brush arbor, Zion Hill Baptist Church was formed in 1872 under the pastorship of the Reverend Robert Grant. Shortly, following a 10 week revival that resulted in significant growth of the church, Rev. Grant resigned and was followed by the Reverends Jesse Davis, Cyprus Wilkins, and Crawford Holmes. During these early years Zion Hill continued to grow in membership, influence and challenges. Reverend W. W. Floyd became pastor during a time of division in the membership but God brought the flock back together and Pastor Floyd led the church in erecting a wooden house in which to worship. Following the home-going of Reverend Floyd, the church experienced continued growth, requiring the construction of another church edifice, led by Reverend C. H. Robinson. Reverends J. T. Johnson and L. M. Terrill led Zion Hill through the Great Depression, followed by Reverend Larry H. Williams, who led Zion Hill in securing the church's present location. Reverend Williams retired as pastor of Zion Hill in 1992. In January of 1994, Zion Hill received the Reverend Doctor Aaron L. Parker as its tenth pastor. Reverend Parker's God-filled sermons and divine visions, along with the church's uplifted spirit, are resulting in rapid membership growth, innovative spiritual programs and timely community outreach ministries. The youth ministry has become a vibrant and integral part of the church's mission, new spiritual programs are in progress and the church family is pressing ever-forward towards its mission. In 2006, Dr. Parker and Zion Hill embarked as a family on The Rock Project, a $20 million building program to relocate Zion Hill to a 40 acre site in South Fulton County. This expansion of facilities will support the continued growth of Zion Hill, but more importantly, will permit the expansion of services that this congregation can provide to God's people.
