I’ve driven past this church for years, and wondered about it. It looks like it was built minus the tower and steeple. I’m guessing that it was designed, as many churches were, to add the rest later as the funds were raised.
The sign on the outside reads: “Dayspring Church of Windsor”. According to Google the church is a “Non-Denominational faith community, celebrating in the Pentecostal tradition”.
A close up look at the cornerstone reveals a trace of the building’s past.
Anyone out there know anything about the church?

Dayspring is pastored by Melvin Freeman. Originally Dayspring began meeting in the Fitch Chapel at Parkwood Gospel Temple. They moved into this current building some time in the last 6-8 years, I think. The congregation formerly in this building were known as The Christian Church and sold the property due to an aging, shrinking congregation reaching the point of being unable to maintain full functionality.
Correction. The church is pastored by James Pittman. Mel Freeman pastors Upper Room on Albert St.
when i was a kid we attended a wedding at this church i don't recall what the name of it was back then it might have been the christian church
Any of Us, that have Grown Up in the Church, Have a Profound Sense of Responsibility to Give Back. I Grew Up in That Little Church. I am 66 and Can Tell About All of the Wonderful People that Used to Attend! I will be in that Area on Thursday Morning 20150820. If Anyone is There at that Time, I will Show up for 1/2 Hour or So. Might Be Able to Help the Church, even a Little. If another Time is Better, We Can Arrange That! Looking Forward to it, Douglas Murray
