Who are we?

Our History

Nicholasville First Assembly of God traces its beginnings to the summer of 1936, when Rev. M. M. Johnson held Gospel meetings on the Jessamine County Courthouse lawn. Later that year, a revival was conducted inside the courthouse, sparking interest in forming a church.

Despite financial challenges and the lack of a building, a small group of believers faithfully gathered in homes. In 1941, Rev. C. W. Modder arrived to help establish the church, and services soon moved to a rented building on Stratton Avenue. In 1944, the congregation purchased the property, trusting God through sacrifice and steady growth.

As the church expanded, a new block building was constructed in 1954. In 1984, our present sanctuary was built on Wilmore Road, providing space for continued ministry.

Today, we remain committed to sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ — reaching up, reaching in, and reaching out.
