Our Story

In 1975 House of the Lord began as a bible study in the home of Howard Hundley in Furport, with Ken Arthur leading the study. Many people of all generations were drawn to the simple fellowship, dynamic teaching, passionate worship and the magnificent presence of God! It soon became known as "The Furport Community Sunday School". 

As the church grew and people were saved, baptized, discipled and added to the church it then became known as "Furport Church of the Body".

In 1980, a dream began to grow in the hearts of the leaders and congregation of establishing a place where their children could be educated but also taught Christian principles. The church was given ten acres in Oldtown by Rob & Marti Roborough. In the spring of 1980 they broke ground for a multipurpose building to use as a school and a church. 

So here we are! It is our desire to continue the vision of our church founders. Simple fellowship, dynamic teaching, passionate worship and the magnificent Presence of God!
