You can hardly tell that the above photo is of Mt. Pisgah United Methodist Church. It was taken on Battleground Avenue with a zoom lens that compressed the church into the building and vehicles on Battleground Avenue. Mt. Pisgah is located on Pisgah Church Road where it intersects with Battleground.
Mt. Pisgah dates back to 1845, The first building was a one room building just west of the above location. The church in the current location dates to the late 1800's and the current building was actually constructed in 1968. Mt. Pisgah UMC has grown and changed along with its surrounding neighborhood. As for the congregation, they work hard to remain relevant to society's needs today, while honoring the traditional beliefs and values of the United Methodist Church. Next time you are at Lowe's on Battleground, look up, and you will see Mt. Pisgah. In the fall, will notice an impressive pumpkin patch.
The architecture certainly evokes that era.
