Our Mission

Feeling at Home with Jesus is dwelling daily with Jesus. We exist to help people dwell with Jesus by creating an atmosphere where the Holy Spirit operates, creating environments for discipleship, and creating lasting relationships through Christian family and community.

Our Story

In 1948, Mr. Wiley and Lizzie Litchfield started prayer meetings in their home, sparking a revival that led to the creation of Hickory Grove Community Church in 1949, thanks to land and timber donations from Neal Hennent and the Litchfield brothers. The church officially became Hickory Grove Pentecostal Holiness Church in 1958 under Rev. Ernest Cooper. Despite periods of low attendance, faithful members kept it alive, and it expanded significantly over the years, adding new buildings and facilities. Under the leadership of various pastors, including Rev. Reginald Thames, Jr. and Rev. Douglas Cooper, the church has continued to grow and serve the community, always giving glory to Jesus Christ.

Our Beliefs

At Hickory Grove we believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth; and in Jesus Christ His only Son, our Lord; which was conceived by the Holy Ghost, born of the virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, dead, and buried; He descended into hell [that is, the place of the departed righteous]; the third day He rose again from the dead; He ascended into heaven; and sitteth on the right hand of God the Father Almighty; from thence He shall come to judge the quick and the dead. We believe in the Holy Ghost; the holy catholic [universal] church; the communion of saints; the forgiveness of sins; the resurrection of the body; and life everlasting.
