Brief History of Graham First Christian Church

A county wide dedicatory service on June 30 1924 marks the completion of Graham Texas First Christian Church history. From early 1880s meetings at Gooseneck Bend to a 716 Elm Street building in 1889 and later a 1917 brick church, leaders like Wm C Bell R E Mabry Evans Jackson and C Klingman guided growth. The narrative lists elders deacons and ministers, notes a 1916 building drive raising funds to complete the new worship space, and concludes with stewardship appeals urging members to support the church and its missions in a changing Graham population.
