Our History

The Old Parsonage House

Our History

Bible School 1914

In December, 1918, one of the finest homes in Clifton Forge was purchased for a parsonage for the First Christian Church for the sum of $8,250.00. The home hosted many weddings and church functions over the years.

The “Marriage Room” was a special place at the parsonage house.  There, hundreds of couples were married over the decades.  Mr Long performed nearly 2,000 marriages during his time at First Christian Church (Disciples of Christ), Clifton Forge .

The “Marriage Room” provided an intimate setting for smaller weddings for church members.

Just like the home, this page is still a work in progress.  Please check again soon and we will have more information about the history.  Thank you for your interest and support!
