Harrisena Community Church History

circa 1892

The construction of the church sanctuary began as an act of love
in 1866, by John J. Harris, for his wife, a devout christian Sunday school
teacher who had dreamed of having her own church.

circa 1918

Through the years, the building was associated with a number of
larger churches until 1947, when the congregation voted
to incorporate as the "Harrisena Community Church".

circa 1957

In 1969, the Reverend LaMont Robinson became minister.
Many new programs were instituted and eventually, a new
education building was constructed and dedicated as
"The Harrisena Education & Community Center".
The HECC building is now home to a number of
small organizations and special groups who utilize the church's
facilities throughout the year.
