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.

#LoveLikeJesus
“Well, that's just who I am. They're gonna have to get over it. No, no, no. That ain't who Jesus is. And you don't get to say anymore, well, I don't care what everybody else thinks. This is what I'm gonna do. When our God says to us, no, no. You do care what everybody else thinks. Not because of what they're gonna tell you on social media, not because they may not like your picture or your graphic or your whatever, but because you love them like Jesus loves them, and you're trying to bring them to Jesus, and the things that you do in your life can offend them.”

“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.”

“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.”

#JesusChangesLives
“And Jesus would say, hey. Hey. Hey. Hold on a minute. That's not complicated. Do y'all know that when you surrender your life to Christ, he will actually do the work of changing some things in you that you can't change on your own? So you're gonna you're gonna surrender your life to Christ, and and many of you have already done that, and you know because you were this before you came to know Christ, and you're this now, and it's because of Jesus changing you, not some program that you jumped into.”

#KeepItSimple
“I just think that you and I are trying to live according to a standard that is higher than what God has even set for us. Anybody hear that? Yes. Like, we're we're already trying to live past what God's called us to because God says to us, man, it ain't that complicated. Come to me, and I'll save you. Well, God, I know, but I gotta wear the right stuff and do the right things. I gotta read my bible seven days a week. I gotta do all these things. And our God says to us, stop. It's not that complicated.”
38s
#JesusSaves
“Jesus Christ is the one that saves you. Jesus is the one that holds you and saves you today and keeps you saved until the end of your time here on there, and then he takes you home. That's Jesus. And how hard you work for that does not matter. If you feel like, well, you know what? I better be... I better join this church if I really wanna know Jesus, I better become one of these, or I better get one of these, or find one of these, or have some of this, whatever that is, Jesus says, listen to me. You're making it too complicated.”
39s
#RelationshipNotReligion
“And then they come back to these brothers and sisters, new believers, and say, Listen, Holy Spirit has spoken to us, and we feel like He's telling us to tell you we're not going make it more difficult and more complicated for you to come to Christ. Your relationship with Jesus is based on your faith in him, the grace that he gives us, and a relationship with Jesus Christ. And we're not going to allow people that are so focused on religion that they can't grasp relationship. We're not going to allow them to put new rules and new regulations on you because of the way they were brought up.”

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.
