About Us — North Roxboro Baptist Church

Our Story

North Roxboro Baptist Church was founded in 1916, and much of the church's history and heritage is tied to the Longhurst Cotton Mill. From its earliest days, NRBC has stood as a place of gospel hope and community belonging for the families of the Longhurst community.

By God's grace there has been a faithful gospel witness in this community for over 100 years.

The church has been gathering for worship at our current location since 1980. We are in friendly partnership with the Beulah Baptist Association, The Baptist State Convention of NC, and the Southern Baptist Convention.

Our Mission

We exist to glorify God by gathering on the hill and going into the world to make disciples of Jesus Christ by the power of the Holy Spirit.

What We Believe

These convictions shape everything we do as a church family.
