East Park began as a Sunday School for all ages led by Mr. and Mrs. J. T. Owens, because “the people [of East Park Boulevard] began to feel the need of a Sunday School in their midst.” Located in a small building at 1653 East Main Street, the Sunday School flourished with “much help from the First Baptist Church,” outgrowing its first meeting place within the first four years.In 1891, the Sunday School took up residence in a newly built chapel on two donated lots at the northern end of East Prairie Avenue’s 1700 block. The Ladies’ Aid society of First Baptist Church supported the work largely by community fund-raisers.
