Church History
On February 6, 2009, United Christian Church of Emmet was formed by a small group of Christian believers who had a desire to serve Christ. This flock was led by Pastor Benny L. Kingsby (2009) of Hope, followed by Pastor John F. Terry, (2010) of Arkadelphia.
On April 1, 2012, God sent us a pastor, preacher, teacher by the name of Wanda L. Bullock of Hope, AR. Pastor Bullock has been instrumental in feeding and nurturing this flock. Under her leadership and over the past 9 years, we have had many AWESOME events to encourage, empower and to keep us lifted in the Word.
With the guidance of Pastor Bullock, and God paving the way, a new church facility was erected in 2016 followed by a Burn the Note service in less than 3 short years.
This past year, 2020 has been an unbelievable experience for many across the nation. With the Pandemic, unimaginable loss of life and lack of US leadership, UCC was blessed to continue its ministries as we spread the Word of our Lord and Savior. Pastor Bullock led Sunday Morning service on the church parking lot, when it was not safe to hold services inside the sanctuary. There were six members added to the flock during this time. UCC was also blessed to have the parking lot paved and marked for the safety and convenience of all users.
As the winter of 2020 approached, God made a way for us to continue Sunday services and Bible Study using Zoom each week. Members can utilize a computer, cell phone or tablet to view services, or you may call in from you home/cell phone for audio service only. He just keeps on Blessing UCC. Other ministries such as the Mission, Prayer Warriors and Community Outreach programs continued to provide services.
