Our History Scrapbook

The Derry Presbyterian Church has a long, rich and varied history of service to our Lord Jesus Christ and to our community. We have been organized as a church since 1876, and can trace our roots even farther back than that through our mother church The Old Salem Church located in Derry Township. These pages contain a "scrapbook" of some of our historical information. Please browse and enjoy...

This on-line history section would not have been possible without their untiring efforts. In particular, special thanks goes to Phyllis M. Humphreys, the Chairperson of the committee.)
