Charter Members Pastors Important Dates From the Historian

The history contained on these pages is a web adaptation of the records compiled by Heath Semones, church historian and a very nearly a charter member, and his daughter, Patricia Cale. Every effort has been made to adhere to the original text. Hear the story as it is told in the voice of someone who witnessed it first hand, from "the church built in one day", to becoming a station church, the additions and growth, and sending several members into the ministry to start the process all over again.

It is still a work in progress. The church history was originally compiled to be presented at the church's 49th Anniversary Celebration in 1994. Each following year, the historians have added an addendum which covers the August to August activities between anniversaries. Since her father's passing, Patricia Cale has continued to provide the annual updates. The original work is located in the display case in Grace Hall. Reprints are available by request from the author.
