The First Presbyterian Church of Homer was organized in 1838 with thirty-four members under the direction of the Reverend Elijah Buck. Shortly afterward, services were held in the “Session House,” which served the congregation until 1853, when the existing sanctuary was built. In 1886 the narthex was added and the church was remodeled under the guidance of architect L. D. Grosvenor. Its architectural style is Renaissance Classical, showing some influence of Sir Christopher Wren.
