Rose Hill Presbyterian Church
While its current sanctuary was built in 1920, Rose Hill Presbyterian Church's congregation traces its roots within the neighborhood to 1915. In February of that year, the Christian Endeavor Movement held 'Christian Endeavor Week' in Columbia, establishing seven societies throughout the city, one of which was in Rose Hill. That May, near the Rose Hill School, the fledgling church rented a 'community house' whose rooms it transformed into places for children's classes, cooking and sewing classes, as well as a space for meetings.
