First church building in White Deer. Dedicated July 4, 1909. Financed mainly through gifts from pioneer members' home churches, and donations by other denominations. Also used by Methodists and Baptists for 11 years, with circuit pastors for the three congregations rotating their Sunday visits. A union Sunday School and missionary society were organized. All offerings were equally shared among the three churches. SUPPLEMENTAL PLAQUE: The First Presbyterian Church building served as a worship center from 1909 to 1969. The structure was moved from this site in 1978. (1979) |
