Early in February 1943, several brethren of the Church of Christ in Hundred, West Virginia, met to consider establishing a Church of Christ at Mannington, West Virginia. These men invited Brother J.C. Roady of Sullivan, Indiana to conduct a meeting in April of that year. They secured permission to rent the Episcopal church building, which they later purchased. Brother Roadys meeting began April 6th and ended April 25th. During this meeting a congregation was banded together with 42 members. Those who took their stand with this congregation were to take the Bible as their only guide. In following the Bible as their only guide, they were to wear the name, Church of Christ (Romans 16:16), and as members of the church, they were to wear the name Christian (Acts 11:26), they were to meet on the first day of each week and on that day they were to have communion (Acts 20:7), that the only kind of music to be used was singing (Eph. 5:19), that the Lords way of rasing money to support the church must be carried out by contributions only (1 Cor. 16:1-3). They believed that in order for men to be saved they must enter into Christ (1 Cor. 12:13 and Rom. 8:1), and the way to enter into Him is by: Faith (Heb. 11:6), Repentance (Acts 17:30), Confession (Rom. 10:10), and Baptism (Acts 2:38 and Gal. 3:27). They further believed and taught that there is one baptism (Eph. 4:1-6), and that it is a burial (Rom. 6:1-6), and that when one does this, the Lord adds them to the church (Acts 2:47). The congregation continued to grow from 42 in 1943, to an average attendance of just under 200 in 2002. During this period of growth, elders and deacons were appointed and a new building was erected. An addition was added in 1984. Today, members still hold fast to the beliefs as set forth by those who established the Mannington congregation. These are the same beliefs which Christ set forth to the first century Christians as recorded in the Bible.
