About

The church of Christ in Elk City began to meet for worship in the fall of 1901 in a rented hall on North Main Street. During the early summer of 1902 an evangelist from Texas known as "Weeping Joe Hardin" came to Elk City to hold a meeting.  This zealous, hard-hitting pioneer preacher saw the possibility for a permanent church in Elk City and resolved not to leave until a building program was started.  He was successful in uring the needed funds and donated labor for a frame building which was located at 108 North Washington.  The lot was given by Sister Jones, a widow.The congregation continued to use this building until 1925 when they purchased the old Methodist church building at the corner of Second & Adams.  After acquiring this building, it was enlarged, repaired and remodeled to make it fully meet the needs of the growing congregation.  In 1949 a new, spacious auditorium with a seating capacity of 650 was completed and dedicated to the service of the Lord.  Later a wing for classrooms was added in matching yellow brick.
