Worth Ellis

Worth Grant Ellis (February 15, 1878 – July 26, 1950) was an American preacher, Baptist evangelist, and pastor whose ministry centered on rural North Georgia, where he combined fervent revival preaching with community service. Born in Forsyth County, Georgia, to a farming family—likely of modest means, with parents’ names unrecorded in public records—Ellis grew up immersed in the Baptist traditions of the South. Converted in his youth during a local tent revival, he felt a divine call to preach, receiving informal training through mentorship within the Baptist community rather than formal seminary education, a common path for rural ministers of his time. Ellis’s preaching career began around 1905 when he was ordained at Yellow Creek Baptist Church in Cherokee County, Georgia, where he served as pastor for several years. Known for his energetic, heartfelt sermons on salvation, repentance, and Christian living, he became an itinerant evangelist by the 1910s, holding tent meetings and revivals across Forsyth, Cherokee, and surrounding counties. In 1920, he played a key role in founding a church in Ball Ground, Georgia, reflecting his commitment to establishing lasting congregations. His ministry peaked with large gatherings that drew rural families, earning him a reputation as a preacher who spoke directly to their struggles. Beyond preaching, Ellis farmed to support his family and served as a justice of the peace, notably officiating marriages—local lore credits him with uniting numerous couples.
