Broadway Presbyterian Church
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Har Sinai Church of Christ is located in a historic church building that was originally Broadway Presbyterian Church and then Grace English Evangelical Lutheran Church (for more than 75 years) in Baltimore, Maryland.[1][2][3] It was built as a Presbyterian on the southwest corner of Gough Street and Broadway in Fell's Point.[2]
The cornerstone of Broadway Presbyterian Church was laid in a ceremony August 13, 1843. Ebenezer Thompson Baird was one of those in attendance. The church opened in January 1846 with Rev. John C. Backus presiding.[2] Thomas E. Peck was installed as the first pastor. He later served as pastor of another church and became a professor at Hampden Sydney College in Virginia.[2]
