About Us

Spring Road was started by the Cleveland  Avenue Church of Christ in January 1963, and the first service consisted of about 30 members.  Cleveland Avenue bought the land, built the building, and blessed Spring Road with their pulpit minister, David Myers Sr., who was a full-time minister until 1981. Cleveland Avenue supported Spring Road financially for the next 3 years, at which time Spring Road had grown enough to become self-supportive.  Within 10 years, more classroom space was needed, so the education wing was extended, and in 1985 construction began on the Main Auditorium, which was completed in 1986.

The founding members were from Cleveland Avenue, Indian Springs, and Seventh Avenue (F&K).  They were:  David & Linda Myers, and 3 children; Dalka & Helen Gibson and 4 children; Brady & Clara King and 2 children; Ed & Pauline Buxton and 3 children; Jim & Dotty Wilson and two children; Yvonne Campbell; Roy & Delores Roberts.  The first Elders were:  David Myers Sr., Beryl Johnson, & Lee Sprout.

Bob Bradner, who also later served as an Elder, started the Tuesday School program and was the scout master of Scout Troop 963, the first scout troop sponsored by Spring Road.  We have continued to sponsor the scout troops for more than 50 years now.
