Warren Memorial Presbyterian Church Explained
Warren Memorial Presbyterian Church was a Presbyterian congregation formerly located in what is now downtown Louisville, Kentucky.
History
The church was incorporated under the name Chestnut Street Presbyterian Church on February 25, 1848.[1] In 1875, the church purchased land on the southwest corner of 4th and Broadway and began the construction of a new building. The following year, the church's name was changed to Broadway Tabernacle Presbyterian Church. The name was changed again to Warren Memorial Presbyterian Church in 1882.[2] [3]
Dr. A. B. Simpson pastored the church from 1874 to 1879. He would later found the Christian and Missionary Alliance.
