Originally the Groveton Mission was established at the Groveton School (now the St. Louis Chapel) when the Seminarians held Bible study (non-denominational) in 1880.
The Groveton community built a new non-denominational church called Christ Church of Groveton or Groveton Chapel on Route 1 (Richmond Highway) in 1903.
By 1959, the new St. Mark's Episcopal Church was built on South Kings Highway.
