      <image:title>History &amp; Beliefs - The Years in Between</image:title>
      <image:caption>Over the past 100+ years, this congregation has taken many forms. Different elders, different preachers. Some new faces and some families who have been here for their entire lives. There are men and women who are now in their 60’s, 70’s, and 80’s who were raised in the Clifton Church family. Throughout the years, God has continued to work in and through this community of believers to be a blessing and to share Jesus with others.</image:caption>

      <image:title>History &amp; Beliefs - Today</image:title>
      <image:caption>When you ask people about their experience with Clifton Church of Christ there are two main things that stand out: radical hospitality and force for Christ in the community. Many of the people who are members of the church family today say the primary reason they chose Clifton as their church home is because of the way they were greeted when they walked in on Sunday. You can’t come to church here on a Sunday and not be greeted and welcomed by countless members of our family making you feel at home. Our desire to serve the community and work alongside the other churches in Clifton has not always been part of our story. But for the past 10 years it has been. We pray each Sunday for one of the congregations in town. We join in with the Clifton Ministerial Alliance on projects for our community. We are always seeking opportunities to be the hands and feet of Jesus among our neighbors.</image:caption>

      <image:title>History &amp; Beliefs - The Early Years</image:title>
      <image:caption>December 1872 - Gabrella Helm, daughter of Fielding and Dorcas Helm, kept a careful journal of her family’s trip by wagon to Texas in 1871, when “Fielding Helm and family left [Kentucky].” They first settled in Hill County, but in 1872 moved to Bosque County. Gabrella recorded a copy of letters from the clerk of the Church of Christ at McCormacks, Lincoln County, Kentucky, commending her, her mother, and sisters “to the care, Christian regard, and fellowship of those disciples of Christ to whom this [letter] may be presented.” 1881 and earlier - The Church of Christ in Clifton was organized in the early days of the town. With the arrival of the railroad in 1881, the congregation moved with the town from the river to the railroad. The church building at that time was located about a block east of the railroad station. 1885 - Clifton Record, Nov 23, 1956 - “Clifton’s Church of Christ was organized in 1885 by J. F. Ford, G. B. Helm, M. E. Ford, M. G. Cash, and G. C. Cash, who emigrated from Kentucky to Texas. The first minister was J. G. Nance. The congregation has had an uninterrupted continuance from the date of its organization.</image:caption>
