The church was organized
in 1904 by Rev. Charles Bly. The first Board of Trustees consisted
of Julian M. Collins, Dr. J.N. Hoad, and Sam M. Collins.
The second church was
built in 1944 under the leadership of Rev. F.L. Hearne. Though it
was replaced by the present church structure in 1980, the second church
building still stands.
The third church held
its first service on Easter Sunday 1980 under the leadership of Rev. William
B. Shaw. |
