Organizations Fostering Unity
Brewton is home to several denominations and has many historic churches which are an important part of city life. There are nearly 60 churches in the city and surrounding area including Protestant, Catholic and Pentecostal places of worship.
Driving down Belleville Avenue, observers are able to see churches in and close to downtown. Many other churches are located in quaint neighborhoods and have that good, old-town feel. Maintained by their parishes, these old buildings are magnificent in architecture and lively places of worship. Many community activities are housed through and by the churches in Brewton, bringing together people from around the town and community.
These churches also have multiple youth and children’s programs which offer another type of recreation for the city’s young people. Many churches have a mid-week service with an informal dinner which provides an opportunity for members to gather and worship.
There are several civic organizations in Brewton who help to support the community through fundraisers and activities. The Rotary Club, Kiwanis Club and the Lions Club are just a few organizations which are dynamic in the community.
