Through Our Heritage

The first breath of life in the history of the Christian Church of Florence was breathed on October 21, 1874. It was at the time that a handful of believers sought to “take the Holy Scriptures... as our only foundation of faith and our guide in the christian life.”

Two years later, in 1876 Glover Martin was asked to come preach at certain points in Marion County. These meetings resulted in the further organization of a congregation in Florence. Meetings we held in the old stone school house, then in a frame building known as the Arnold School. The church also met in a hall on the third floor in the Horner Building.

In 1890, construction began on the first house of worship for the congregation. This church building was located on the corner of 7th and main. It would serve the congregation well for 68 years. The building was finished in 1893 and it was at that time that charter was issued by the state of Kansas.

In 1957, 13 lots were purchased on Dean Street and on Sunday July 2, 1961 a round breaking ceremony was held and, soon after, construction began. The building was ready for use on March 11, 1962 and was dedicated for the worship of God and the teaching of the Bible on March 1962.
