Marker Text:
The church, organized in 1880, has impacted the city of Greenville for more than a century. In its early years, the congregation met in a variety of places, including a courthouse and an opera house, before erecting a structure. In addition to being a spiritual center, the church has aided Greenville through volunteer work by its members. The congregation has also been involved in global efforts, including missions. The church's multisensory learning center and programs for families dealing with learning disabilities has also been noteworthy. For over 100 years, the church has played a vital role in the spiritual, educational and social needs of Greenville. (2006)
