    This congregation was organized on August 4, 1889 by the Rev. S. P. Clement and twelve charter members. Early worship services were held in the one-room Gober schoolhouse and in a brush arbor. In 1893 a sanctuary, the first church structure built in Gober, was completed on land donated by Mr. and Mrs. James Eads. It was replaced by a two-story frame building in 1924, which was in turn replaced by a new structure at this site in 1953. Throughout its history Gober Baptist Church has been involved in domestic and foreign missions support and activities.
