About

The church destined to become the Presbyterian Church of Saint Albans, grew out of cottage prayer meetings. In 1898, the year before the town of Saint Albans was officially named, a group of Christians started holding Wednesday evening meetings in their houses. They were determined to worship even though there was no church in their rural community. The need for a place to worship God was great because the farmers in those days had to drive their horses and buggies either to Springfield or Jamaica, in order to attend services.
