Weston First Christian Church

First Christian Church
of Weston

Originally located in the com-
munity of Roseland ( about 5 mi. W;
now known as Alla), this congre-
gation was organized in 1900 by
Dr. and Mrs. Moses Hubbard and
their neighbors. The Roseland
church building , constructed in the
same year, was also used by the
Baptist, Presbyterian and Methodist
denominations. The Christian Church
moved to this site in 1914 and
built a new sanctuary on land
donated by Sam Dorsey. Led by
the Rev. Douglas Darnell, the
congregation grew and a taber-
nacle was built in the 1920s. The
church remains an important
part of the Weston Community.
