About This Location
The New Ellenton Church of Christ serves this distinctive planned community in Aiken County, South Carolina. New Ellenton holds a unique place in American history as a town created in 1950 when the original Ellenton was relocated to make way for the Savannah River Site nuclear facility. This resilient community rebuilt itself with determination, creating a close-knit atmosphere that continues today.
Located in the Central Savannah River Area (CSRA), New Ellenton sits just minutes from Aiken and Augusta, Georgia, offering small-town charm with access to larger metropolitan amenities. The area attracts residents working at the Savannah River Site, retired military families, and those seeking affordable living in a stable community environment.
Churches of Christ have maintained a steady presence throughout South Carolina’s Midlands and CSRA region, emphasizing New Testament Christianity and autonomous congregational worship. These congregations typically focus on biblical authority, a cappella singing, and weekly communion.
Visitors to New Ellenton will find a community that values its history while embracing newcomers. The town’s planned layout creates an orderly, accessible environment, and residents take pride in maintaining their neighborhood’s appearance. Those relocating to the area often appreciate the community’s stability, proximity to employment opportunities at SRS and Fort Eisenhower, and the broader cultural offerings available in nearby Aiken and Augusta.
The congregation welcomes both long-term residents and newcomers seeking biblical fellowship in this historically significant South Carolina community.
