FIRM FOUNDATIONS: A Tour of Upstate Presbyterian Churches

This book is available now and can be purchased at the Upcountry History Museum, the Mast General Store and Christian Supply. It will soon be available at Barnes and Noble, Hub City, Family Christian and Lifeway. It can be ordered online at Barnes and Noble, www.amazon.com and www.ambassador-international.com.

Take a journey through the Upstate and see our local Presbyterian churches. See their beauty and hear their stories from long ago. This beautiful, hardback book covers the rich history of the Presbyterian churches that were founded in the 1700s and 1800s. Written and photographed by Liz Morrisey, this is a lovely book that would be a wonderful gift for anyone Presbyterian or anyone who loves beautiful photography and beautiful churches.
