The Following is a brief summary of our history, as it appears in our Constitution:

The congregation which is presently known as Covenant Reformed Baptist Church began with the desires of families in the Bluefield area to see a biblical local church established.  While some of the families participated in meetings in the 1980's, the present group had its first meeting together in April of 1994.   Shortly thereafter the families prayerfully considered taking steps which could lead to the formation of a church holding to the 1689 London Confession of Faith.  In May 1994, the group began holding Wednesday meetings, adopting the name Covenant Baptist Fellowship. In April 1995 Covenant Baptist Fellowship requested oversight from the Grace Reformed Baptist Church of Mebane, NC, which resulted in the commencement of Sunday evening services in May 1995 and regular Lord's Day morning and evening services beginning October 8, 1995.  During the years of waiting the diverse group which formed Covenant Baptist Fellowship grew in unity and love for the brethren.  On May 23,1998  the patient prayers of these families were answered when they constituted as Covenant Reformed Baptist Church of Bluefield.
