CHURCH HISTORY

 

This First Presbyterian Church in Camden was established in 1852.  

This small group of believers met in a log cabin home until the first 

quaint two-story building was erected in 1858.  This building was 

replaced with a new church dedicated in 1905.  An educational building 

was completed in 1957.  The new sanctuary with seating capacity for 

325 is the current place of worship and was completed in 1966 along 

with a parlor, fellowship hall and kitchen.  The bell in the tower was 

moved to its present location from the original church and can be heard 

ringing every Sunday morning.  Since its inception, two congregations 

have joined FPC:  Champion Hill Presbyterian Church of Cullendale in 

1961 and Second Presbyterian Church of Camden in the late 1980's.
