Zion Hopewell Baptist Church (formerly) began as a bush harbor. As time moved on, the services were held in a wood structure. The grounds were purchased on August 3, 1893, sealed on August 17, 1893 and recorded on November 3, 1893.
The old wooden church fell and services were moved to the old schoolhouse. New construction began on a new building, next to where the wooden church once stood. The construction on the cement block building began on June 1964 and was completed on December 10, 1964.
In 1970, the dinning room and the side restrooms were added. The dining tables and chairs were donated by Mr. Lewie L., Sr. and Mrs. Bertha K. Rikard.
In 1982, renovations begun inside the sanctuary.
In the year of 1986, Reverend Theotis White, became the pastor of Zion Hopewell Baptist Church (formally known). During this transition, the church went through a ministry makeover and is now advancing into the purpose and call of God.
In June 2006, phase 1 was completed which consists of the Life Center constructed behind the old church building.
