A Rich History The Dyer Cumberland Presbyterian Church was born north of the present city of Dyer at the site of Bobbitt-Pleasant Grove Cemetery, just off the old Dyer-Rutherford Road. It was organized as the Pleasant Grove Society of the Cumberland Presbyterian Church on May 20, 1848, with 51 charter members. Very few records exist to record the history of the congregation over the next 21 years. The little log church was deserted at some point and following the Civil War, a new building was erected in town in 1869. This is the site on which the present building now stands. The name of the congregation was changed to the Dyer Cumberland Presbyterian Church in 1888. The old wood frame structure was sold in 1889, and a brick building was constructed in the same location. The General Assembly of the Cumberland Presbyterian Church voted in 1906 to unite with the Presbyterian Church USA. Many congregations were opposed to this union and voted to continue on as Cumberland Presbyterian congregations. The Dyer congregation polled its people and out of 165 members there were 124 who voted to stay with the Cumberland Presbyterian Church. Some 25 voted to unite with the Presbyterian Church (USA), and 16 would not express an opinion. The pastor, Rev. E.T. Beard, supported the union and withdrew with those who desired to unite with the Presbyterian Church. Today that congregation is located two lots to the west and is known as the First Presbyterian Church (USA). The Cumberland congregation continued to grow and rooms were added to the building during the following years. The present church building was erected in 1951. The Dyer Cumberland Presbyterian Church is the community’s oldest organized Christian congregation. The 150th birthday celebration was held on July 5, 1998, with a day long celebration. It stands as a reminder of the faith and dedicated lives of many people. Its ministries, in the name of Jesus Christ, extend from the local community to mission fields around the world.
