Years ago, people in the community worked very hard among themselves sharing love and trying to make survival an easy task. They feared God and knew He was their only source of hope. They also remembered a promise was made to Peter in Matthew 6:18 and 19, “upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.” This was received as a personal promise and became a commitment of a few concerned people in the community. In 1871, Saint James African Methodist Episcopal Church was erected by Reverend A. James and was assisted by Brothers J. Simmons and P. Simmons. Reverend J. H. Davidson served as Pastor and the church secretary was S. B. Simmons. Another group of committed members embarked upon a similar journey. Mr. Willis Newberry, Willis Newberry, Jr., and James Ferguson acquired land by paying $10.00 to Mr. W. G. Jones and his wife, Mrs. M. Taylor Jones with the intent to build a church. That church was known as The Bonham Church for Colored People. It was established August 27, 1875. In June of 1898, the church was renamed Bethel African Methodist Episcopal Church under the pastorate of Reverend A. M. Green. Bethel A.M.E. Church was later renamed Rose Bud African Methodist Episcopal Church in the early 1900s. On August 30, 1919, the property of Saint James African Methodist Episcopal Church was purchased for $1.00. Mr. and Mrs. W. S. and Allie W. Capell sold one acre of land to the Trustees of the church. After worshipping and working side by side for many years, the members of both churches agreed and believed that there would be greater strength in their coming together. During the 4th Session of the Southwest Annual Conference, Saint James A.M.E Church and Rose Bud A.M.E. Church were merged to form one congregation: Rose Bud - Saint James African Methodist Episcopal Church. As is common, everything everywhere must be governed by rules and regulations.
