Origins

Edgewood Assembly of God Church was organized in October of 1948 under a tent off Macon Road with nine charter members. A few weeks later, due to parking problems, the church was moved to a metal warehouse on the corner of 7th Street and Brown Ave.
In 1949, a house was purchased near Buena Vista Rd. and Brown Ave. The house was remodeled and an addition was added. The church worshiped at this location until 1958 when the property was sold and Edgewood moved to its present location on Morris Rd.
