Notes: On June 25, 1882, the First Presbyterian Church
of Miller was organized. In October of 1882 plans were made for a
church building with an anteroom over which a steeple and belfry
were to be placed. The lumber arrived the following May, and work
was begun at once. The original cost of the building was $2,050.00,
and was dedicated July 8, 1883, unencumbered by debt. A second church building was erected on the site of the old one in 1928, and was dedicated June 15, 1930. The building that was constructed in 1928 is the building that has housed our church ever since. The last mortgage for this building was paid off and burned in a ceremony November 18, 1945. Anniversary services were held on the 50th, 60th and 65th anniversaries of the founding of the church. Important events in the years following the erection of the second building include the entertainment of more than two hundred delegates at Synod in 1931, and the purchase of a Moller pipe organ, dedicated November 13, 1949. In 2013 the existing basement remodeling and the "new" basement area were completed, providing additional and more serviceable Sunday School, choir and meeting rooms along with a wonderful Library Room. Over the years, nearly 2,000 people have become members of this worshipping and praying community. Organ Historical Society as of 2020 |
