Historic Weeping Mary Missionary Baptist Church in Jamesville NC was established in 1866 by former slaves and others under the leadership of Rev. Abram Mebane. A small group of descendants (with community support) continue the mission with Pastor Gregory Rodgers, Sr. Some of the current projects have included a compilation of the church history posted on the Martin Co. Historical Society page, restoration of the church's Bowen Cemetery and church grounds cemetery along with upgrades in the church facility.
