Summary: | View from the chancel area, looking east toward the front entrance and Cloverdale Park. The congregation, previously named the Court Street Methodist Episcopal Church, South, held its first service in this building on July 3, 1938, while the sanctuary was still incomplete. This photograph was taken in the late summer (note the handmade benches and gravel floor), probably by either the pastor, Dr. Oscar E. Rice, or his son, John Rice. |
