Zion Bethel Church is located at the corner of Third and Ohio streets (across from Twin Lakes High School) in Monticello, Indiana. Presently we have a number of ministries that are effectively touching the lives of our people, as well as those without Christ, in our community. Through a variety of ministries, many of which take place in our Family Center, people of all ages are being changed, families are being helped, and most importantly, God is being honored and glorified. If God allows, Zion Bethel Church will continue to reach and serve the Monticello area for Christ in the years to come. If you are in the area we hope you will consider coming to one of our services.

Delaney Street Baptist Church exists to glorify God by making fully devoted disciples of Jesus Christ in the Greater Orlando area. Our passion and desire is to see God the Father glorified as we lift up His Son Jesus Christ, to reach the lost with His gospel, and to serve Him with compassion and excellence. We acknowledge Jesus as the Cornerstone of our church, the Bible as our blueprint for Christian living, and our eight core values as the framework for accomplishing our mission to present Jesus as Savior and pursue Christ as Lord. At Delaney Street Baptist we, as individual believers and as a local body of believers, concentrate on 5 areas of focus: As individual believers we are to worship God as believers with all our hearts, all our soul, all our strength, and all our minds (Luke 10:27). As individual believers we are to utilize our Time, talent, and treasure that God has entrusted to us for the Kingdom of God (2 Corinthians 9:7). We invite you to come and join us in taking part in our rich history and continuing dedication to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. We are conveniently located just south of Downtown Orlando on the corner of Kaley St. and Delaney Ave.

As a result of that meeting Mary Ann and John T. Pullin gave a plot of land on East Main St. to be used for the building of a church. The first church was constructed of red sand brick and was called The Baptist Church of Christ. After 1900 the name was changed to The First Baptist Church of Hogansville. Thomas H. Murphy was called in 1868 as the first pastor of the newly formed church, and a secretary and one deacon were elected. In the 145 years since the organization of the church, gradual growth and development have been manifested in every phase of Christian work. The pastors of the church from its organization have worked with great faith and untiring effort to win souls for Christ and have contributed more than can be recorded to the growth and advancement of First Baptist Church of Hogansville. In 1869 the first sanctuary was built on the land donated by the Pullin family. In 1950 a new education building was built and a0 new sanctuary, which is still in use today, was finished in December 1956. Land was also purchased in 1950 for a parking lot and more was purchased in 2008 for furth0er expansion as needed. First Baptist Church of Hogansville has been a very active member participant and missions partner with the Southern Baptist Convention. The church has a long record of supporting missions locally and globally through its own members and by supporting the Cooperative Program. First Baptist hosted its first Western Baptist Association meeting in the fall of 1889. This support continues today through giving to the Cooperative Program, the mission offerings of Lottie Moon and Annie Armstrong, along with international mission trips to Jamaica, local mission trips to North Georgia and Tennessee, and local missions through God's Bread Basket. We look forward to having you visit and worship with us in the very near future to help us continue our Godly heritage. Sanctuary 1869-1956
