Our Heritage
Georgetown's First Christian Church began in 1816 when Barton Warren Stone, known as the founder of the Christian Churches,
came to Georgetown to serve as principal of Rittenhouse Academy. On April 29, 1819, Joel Craig, son of Reverend Elijah Craig,
founder of Georgetown, deeded town lots 134 & 135 on South (now College) and Clinton Streets to trustees of the Church.
This site originally contained a log meetinghouse and old graveyard.
Stone remained in Georgetown until 1834, two years after the beginning of the union with Alexander Campbell's Disciples of Christ.
The current building (and fourth on this site) was dedicated June 15, 1955.
