Church History Told By Pastor At Orange Township
Elder M C Swigart spoke at the Orange township church on a series of evangelistic meetings. He noted Germantown origins, the First Brethren Church in America, and that Christopher Saur printed the first German Bible in America. He said British troops used church Bible pages as bedding and gun wads, while the original 1700s walls remain in the current building. The sermon focused on The Great Tomorrow.
