"Built to be a Blessing"

Just over 100 years ago, our church campus on the corner of El Dorado and Vine was dedicated on March 25, 1923. Throughout the century of life and worship in this beautiful building, God has worked in such amazing ways. To give thanks and celebrate this extraordinary milestone, we are planning a weekend of festivities on campus. Our theme for the celebration is Built to Be a Blessing, and we will be celebrating the ways that this church campus has been a blessing for our congregation and city. We are inviting anyone who has been a part of our church’s story to join us for either or both of our planned events (see below), and we would love to see you!
