Foot washing Baptists church visit near Six Mile in Pickens

A Greenville News account describes a trip to a Six Mile church in Pickens County on September 14 to observe a primitive Baptist foot washing ceremony. The piece notes the sect’s simple, nonpaid preachers, sparse literature, scattered communities, and the dwindling practice, while contrasting rural life with nearby metropolitan norms.

An account recalls a Six Mile foot washing service from an earlier era. Plain tin basins and cloths framed the ritual with separate men and women, ablutions performed, then transitions to handshake exchanges and a retreat behind screens. The piece notes the custom dying out as modern thought spreads, yet praises the region's simple, devout lives and hopes the virtues endure as change arrives.
