First Presbyterian Church - Ballinger
|
| Ballinger - 301 Broadway
On July 26, 1886, soon after the railroad town of Ballinger was founded,
a presbyterian church with nine charter members was organized at the home
of Mr. and Mrs. J.R. Burt. A small fram sanctuary served the congregation
until this structure was built in 1891. Constructed of native stone during
the pastorate of the Rev. C.L. Ewing, it features a corner tower and steeple.
Additions have been made over the years to serve a growing congregation.
