Assessment
Christiansburg Baptist Church at 2895 Roanoke St. SBCV-affiliated. Currently in pastoral search (previous pastor Major Dalton). Phone: 540-394-3200. Note: Batch listed as 'First Baptist Church' but the actual name is 'Christiansburg Baptist Church.' SBCV affiliation is a positive indicator. Church is in transition — theology may shift depending on new pastor.
