Historical Marker: First Christian Church, Rockdale, Milam, TX

First Christian Church

First Christian Church of Rockdale

Organized in 1887, this Church was first served by

the Rev. A. J. Bush, Sr. (1846-1920), a Civil War

Veteran who was instrumental in establishing

Christian Churches in many areas of the State.

Previous buildings on this site were replaced in 1958

by a new brick sanctuary, with volunteers from the

Congregation providing most of the labor. The Church

has been involved in Local and foreign Missionary

activities for many years, offering assistance to

people in need. The First Christian Church continues

to be an important part of the Rockdale community.
