The Early Years The young church struggled in its early years. There were seven different pastors for the first seven years of the church's existence. When the Rev. H.W. Merrill left in 1926, the struggling church decided to turn its property over to the Presbytery and disband. However, the Presbytery told the congregation to hold on a little longer and called the Rev. L.E. McEldowney to serve as pulpit supply for one month to assess the situation. His one-month assignment turned into a two-decade pastorate under which the church grew into a self-supporting organization with nearly 300 members. Eventually, the church relocated to new property at Habana and Paris and became known as Seminole Presbyterian Church. Thus began a brand new chapter in the church’s ministry.
