MEMORI AL LIBR ARY & HERITAGE CENTER The earliest building in the present Montview Church complex was constructed in 1908-1909; its dedication and consecration as a place of worship occurred on Easter Sunday 1910. Prominent in the worship space were the majestic stained glass windows. Called the East Wing, three areas now exist: the Robinson Room, the Memorial Library, and the Heritage Center. These areas comprise the room in which you are standing. In the 1960s a decision was made to cover the extraordinary windows on the east wall of this space. Classrooms for Sunday school were created, which later evolved into staff offices. However, in 1991, the windows were again revealed for our viewing of their rich, brilliant colors and exquisite detail.
