Types of churches in Rome

Historic Downtown Churches

Centered in the Between the Rivers district near Broad Street, Rome’s historic congregations worship in landmark sanctuaries with stained glass and bell towers. Services tend to be liturgical or traditional, with choirs and community outreach that serves residents who live and work around downtown and along the rivers.

Contemporary Rome Churches

Across West Rome and Garden Lakes, many congregations offer band-led worship, practical teaching, and a casual feel that attracts young families and healthcare professionals from nearby hospitals. Expect modern facilities, strong kids’ programs, and midweek groups timed for commuters along Shorter Avenue and Turner McCall Boulevard.

Rome Churches for Students

With Berry College in Mount Berry and Shorter University on the west side, student-focused congregations shape schedules around the academic calendar. You’ll find rides from campus, late-Sunday services, and small groups geared to undergrads and grad students, plus service projects that connect students to downtown and the river trails.

Spanish Language Churches

Rome’s growing Latino community is served by congregations that offer bilingual or Spanish-only worship, especially in East Rome and neighborhoods south of downtown. These churches often host cultural celebrations, youth ministries in Spanish, and practical outreach for families new to the area.

#HolySpiritWithin
“And having the holy spirit around you is very different than having the holy spirit in You gotta take and eat. You gotta take from what he's doing and ingest what he's doing into your life. The holy spirit lives in us and brings us the power to follow Jesus. Listen. If you're struggling in how to follow Jesus, ask the Holy Spirit for help.”

“And my goal and I've told my daughters this. My goal is to be such a loving father and such a godly man at home that I ruin it for every boy that comes to my house. Yeah. That's good. Like, I wanna set the bar so high in how I love them and in how I love their mom Mhmm. That they refuse to settle for an idiot. Yeah. And so I'm I mean, I'm I'm I'm trying to think about legacy already. Yeah. And my daughters are still young, but I'm going, the way I conduct myself at home can and should inform the men that they choose. Mhmm. Which then impacts not just their future marriages, but my grandkids, all of those things.”

“He's the one that comforts us, and you will get through it. God, I wish I knew some way to communicate some word to say to help you understand. If you will take him by the hand, he will guide you and he will comfort you in the most supernatural way that you won't even understand what he's done, but you made it. You made it. And he helps us pray. I don't know how many times I've used this, the scripture that says that when I need to pray and I'm just groaning and moaning because my heart is so heavy and hurts. The moment is so painful and hurtful. I can't even get out the words. Don't I even know what to pray to God. How do you help me get through this? I don't see a way out of this. And the spirit of God says, let me talk to God in your behalf.”
45s
“Fresh off of hearing God's voice. Fresh off seeing who Jesus really is. And immediately, they are faced with a situation they cannot fix. Sometimes we try to fix problems by ourselves. Anybody been there? Because we fixed those problems before. Anybody been there? Because we fixed those problems before. We've got history. Amen? We got history. We got experience. We've got a usual way of doing things. But some situations are designed by God to humble our hands and stretch our hearts.”
46s
“The condition of our heart is directly correlated to the intake of God's word. The condition of your heart is directly correlated to how much you spend in the word of God. All week long, we are fed by all sorts of things. We consume social media, Fox News, We consume negativity and and, worldly thinking. And if we're not feeding on scripture, our heart will drift. We will fall into the ways of this world and away from godly living.”
40s
“So what does it take to get in the swing of Christianity with with with Jesus? Jump in. Jump in. During this time, if you've never given your heart and life to Jesus, our first responders are down here at the front. You can walk to any one of them and say, help me pray that I might fully get in that swing with Jesus. This is your moment. This is why you came today. This is why you're here today. This is your moment. Not to just spectate from where you're at in your seat. Now you've heard the word. Now it's your chance to respond and press into Jesus.”

#TakeGospelOutside
“Then we gotta figure out how to go outside the church and help people outside of the church. That's the reason we have a team in Nicaragua this morning. That's the reason we have partnerships all over the world, and that's the reason that we have local ministries going on right here in our town. That's the reason we feed people in our parking lot on Thursday nights. I don't know if you've been by here on a Thursday night lately, but they fed, I think, 97 people. He told me Thursday afternoon, and if you weren't paying attention, it was 793 Thursday afternoon. And it might have been cooler at your house, but here, in that asphalt parking lot, it was hot. And they are feeding people and loving people and taking care of people's needs because it's about taking the gospel outside the walls of the church.”
30s
#HolySpiritIndwells
“He says, here are the things you've gotta stay away from, but other than that, we're not gonna make it difficult for you. We want you to surrender your life to Jesus and have the holy spirit that we have. Here's a big one. This wasn't happening before Acts chapter two. Holy spirit will now live inside of the believer, and he brings a power that will take the gospel to the ends of the earth.”
41s
#PersecutionPropelsGospel
“But second, god's gonna use that persecution to get the gospel where he needs it to be. Because I don't know if you're picking up on this, but in your own life, when you take a stand for something that nobody else has taken a stand for, and you stand up and say, look. This is what the bible says, and this is what I'm gonna do. And all your friends at work or all your teammates say, man, you should just let that stuff go. We need to go over here, and we need to cheat it this way or do it this way or or have this or do this instead. We need to go here, and and and and you you're the only one that says, you know what? I'm not doing it.”
29s
#BeDifferentForTheLost
“You may be persecuted for that. You may be blackballed for that. You may not get invited to this or that, or you may not be incurred. You know, all the things. Let me tell you, god's gonna use that to change lives around you. And here's why I know that, because our world is desperately looking for someone that will be different than the rest of the world.”

Why Rome churches are unique

Set at the confluence of the Etowah, Oostanaula, and Coosa rivers, Rome, GA’s geography shapes how churches in Rome gather and serve. Congregations often lean into the outdoors and civic spaces—hosting outdoor baptisms at rivers, leading neighborhood cleanups, and partnering on the riverwalk through community service and river cleanups. The city’s seven hills and preserved downtown also foster reverent settings, with many worshiping in spaces known for historic sanctuaries and stained glass.
As a college town anchored by Berry College and Shorter University, Rome churches meet a steady stream of students, faculty, and young professionals with discipleship and mentorship. You’ll find active college student ministries alongside services that blend tradition and innovation, from modern worship with contemporary band to thoughtful preaching like expository Bible teaching.
Rome’s mix of multigenerational families, healthcare workers, and manufacturing employees creates practical, relational ministries that emphasize care and stability. Many congregations invest deeply in families through strong kids programs for young families, while others reflect the city’s musical and cultural heritage with gospel choir worship and reach newer neighbors through bilingual Spanish services.
