See what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God; and so we are. The reason why the world does not know us is that it did not know him. 1st John 3:1 (ESV)

O'Brien Baptist Church was founded in 1884. The church started out as Cedar Grove Baptist Church, which was a hew log structure. Later in 1889, a fresh pine structure was built with Reverend J. W. Fleming as it's pastor. The church membership was moved to the Obrine (O'Brien) Station in 1894. Over the next few years, the church was led by several men, including W. B. High, D. F. Ward, and B. D. Harrell and was also known as The Baptist Church of Christ of O'Brien. Back in those days, baptisms were often held in the Suwanee River at Little River Springs.
In 1991, Reverend George E. Fryar III and wife Vaster, joined our church and George became pastor until he retired from his position here in 2014, making him the longest running pastor at O'Brien Baptist Church.
Over the years, there have been many changes to the Church like the Men's Ministry, Women's Ministry, a dynamic Youth & Children's Ministries, and an Emergency Food Pantry Ministry allowing us to greatly increase our scope of ministry in Christ's name for our community. Our "State of the art" Audio/ Video Dept and IT equipment & staff, has greatly augmented our ability to reach, not only those who attend our services, but also our "home-bound" members.
Our church has a deep-rooted need & desire to glorify God by making or helping to facilitate making of disciples in all nations, striving to be more like Jesus Christ, both in action & attitude, and helping our fellow neighbors and community fight against sin with scriptural education, evangelism and fellowship in Christ at every opportunity.
In 2015, Reverend Keith Jones and wife, Debbie, joined our church as Keith Jones was nominated and called as our new Pastor.
And the story continues.......
