Fanwood Presbyterian Marks 80 Years in the Community

Fanwood Presbyterian members will gather on Sunday to celebrate their church's 80th year in the borough.

Started in 1929, the church began as a group of about 65 people who worshiped in a building known as School Four — now Children’s Specialized Hospital on LaGrande Avenue in Fanwood.

It's now housed in a much larger space on South Martine Avenue, and boasts a pre-school, thrift shop, food bank and more.

On Wednesday, Rev. David Jahnke took Patch on a tour of the church. Take a look at the video on the right for a view of the building's past and present.
