The Weldon's Religious Roots Supplement offers additional insight into the town’s spiritual heritage through several important works.

Weldon’s rich religious heritage began shortly after the town’s incorporation in 1843. By the late 19th century, six churches had been established, becoming pillars of faith, community, and perseverance.

Dr. Florine Bell wrapped up the program on Weldon’s religious roots by adding comments about the evangelical churches in Weldon that now supplement the six historic churches discussed earlier in the evening.  She pointed out that “Weldon In Action is making history by becoming the first to ever address the county’s church history publicly.  The event could become a future endeavor by continuing to other areas.”
