Mingo Creek Presbyterian Church will be celebrating its 240th anniversary with a community picnic on Saturday, October 9, from 1:00 pm – 4:00 pm. Join us for free food, a musical concert (3-4 pm), and a look at Mingo Church's history through displays and photos.
The Church is on the National Registry for Historic Places. Settlers gathered near the site of the present day Church as early as 1774. The original Meeting House was built in 1788 on the hillside where the manse (house) stands beside the church today. The current Sanctuary was built in 1831. The curved walls were added in 1903. The church has hosted many speakers over the years, including former President Harry S. Truman.
The festivities will be held rain or shine. The Church is located at 561 Mingo Church Rd in Finleyville at the intersection of Rt. 88 and Mingo Church Rd. For more information about this event and other activities happening at the church, please follow Mingo Church on Facebook - @MingoCreekPresbyterianChurch or on Instagram - @MingoChurch. All are welcome to the regular Sunday worship service at 9:30 am.
