Building & Grounds

Ralph Maffett family moved to Little Hocking area on May 3, 1943. On the following Lord's Day, lacking transportation to attend elsewhere, they invited others to worship with them in their home.

In June 1945, the small group acquired the old Red Bush school property on Route 555 in which to hold services, and it became known as the church of Christ at Red Bush.  The old school building was renovated, the roof repaired, and pews were built by members. The brethren later added two classrooms and an entry into the rear of the building.

The need for a larger building and more parking area prompted the congregation to purchased land south of Little Hocking off State Route 50 and 7.  In 1972 a new building was started and he dedication was held on October 27, 1974. In 1979 the fellowship room was added onto the original building.  In 1985 an on-going leaking problem with the flat roof over the classrooms was corrected when a completely new sloping roof was added.  Outside additions include a storage building and pavilion built in 1989.
