The congregation of Cumberland Presbyterians in Bowling Green
began August 12, 1866. In 1869, the first place of worship was
completed; in 1906, the church relocated. Then in 1971, the church
at the current location on Campbell Lane relocated and built a
new church. On April 16, 1998, a severe hail and windstorm hit
Bowling Green, damaging many homes and
businesses. That storm severely damaged our church building. The
reconstruction process left us without a church home until December
20, 1998. On February 7, 1999, a new cornerstone was laid; and
the reconstructed new church was dedicated to the glory of God.
