November 1991
After just a few services in the fire hall we were able to rent a
store front building on First Street in Shenandoah. Everyone pitched in
to help clean the place up and provide a suitable place for worship.

December 1991
Just after Christmas we welcomed our new pastor, Bro. Gary
Edenfield, and his family. We soon came to understand just how blessed we
were as we watched in awe as God used Bro. Edenfield to strengthen our
church. Not only did we see an increase in number, but we were
spiritually restored in so many ways.

April 1993
The storefront building holds a special place in the hearts of
many of the current members of Bible Holiness Church, for it was here that they
found Jesus Christ as their personal savior. It didn't take us long to
outgrow this small storefront building.

In May of 1993, we moved into the new church that we purchased on
Summit Avenue in Elkton. This was a more central location for most of the
members and gave us room to grow.

August 1996
In the early part of 1996 we purchased a 9 acre piece of land just
across the street from our church on Summit Avenue. Ground breaking
service was an exciting day as we all envisioned our new church on the hill.
