Mt. Hebron Road Church of Christ is located at 4530 Mt. Hebron Road(County Road 80).  The Mt Hebron congregation of the church of Christ began in 1951 with an initial membership of three; Walter Thompson, Exa Barker and Pearl Spivey.  In those early days, the church met in the home of Oscar and Exa Barker.  When the Barkers' house overflowed, Brother Greer and others built the first structure (end of 1953) on land given by Carl and Margaret Barker.  The Chisholm congregation in Montgomery helped finance the building.  A German prisoner who worked on Joe Greer's farm during World War II painted the scenic oil picture that originally hung in the baptistery and now hangs in the classroom/fellowship area..  The painting reminds us that some beauty can emerge from the ugliness of war.
