Marker Text: In August 1911, a Baptist revival was held at the Elm Grove School, which had served as a worship site for several churches for approximately twenty years. When the school closed in 1915, only the Baptist congregation continued to use the building, and did so until 1999, when the original school building was removed from the site to make way for new construction. Christian outreach has been an important part of the church’s ministry since the congregation’s earliest days. The church continues today to collect clothing and toys for needy children and support a local food pantry and a local clinic. Elm Grove Baptist church has also been proud to serve as a place of training for ministerial students throughout its existence. (2011)
