Back to Church = Construction + This War of Mine #14 - Video
Venerable and aged though it appeared, the Dewey Avenue Presbyterian Church was still relatively new when this photograph was snapped on a cold winters day in 1930. The house of worship, located at 1261 Dewey Ave., had been dedicated only 11 years earlier on Sept. 9, 1919.
The history of the church traces back further still. The original congregation, consisting of 13 founding families all residents of Dewey Avenue organized themselves in 1911. They petitioned for the erection of a neighborhood church, and convinced the Rev. George Fickes, then a minister at Grace Presbyterian Church, to splinter off with them as their first pastor.
It was Fickes who selected the site for the church, choosing a picturesque spot near the intersection of Dewey Avenue and Seneca Park Way that he favored from his daily bicycle rides through the city. A small wooden church, built with volunteer labor, opened its doors on this property in 1912. Even then, however, plans were afoot for something larger.
Construction for the current Dewey Avenue Presbyterian Church took place between 1917 and 1919. Amid delays caused by American entry into the First World War, a grand structure slowly rose into place.
The finished product, which cost around $80,000, combined an artful Byzantine architecture style with utilitarian design. Its exterior included a large dome above a square base, accented by elegant columns. The spacious interior of the church featured an auditorium, a gymnasium and a three-story educational facility.
Church membership grew along with the physical capacity of the building, which could hold 600 people for Sunday service. The size of the congregation, indeed, already surpassed 550 by the day of the churchs dedication ceremony.
When the mortgage taken to finance the church was paid off in 1947, congregants gathered to celebrate in an unusual way: by burning the document. Flames spurted two feet into the air, one eyewitness recounted, and as the mortgage melted into nothingness, the organ boomed and the people sang the jubilant Great is Jehovah.
Members of the Dewey Avenue Presbyterian Church also had a emblazed passion for social justice. Throughout its history, church leaders took strong moral stands on a number of national and local issues, with pastors advocating political positions from the pulpit on matters like Cold War ideology and urban policy.
Of note on the Rochester level, in the early 1960s, Dewey Avenue Presbyterian spearheaded the creation of the Maplewood Neighborhood Association. The church played an instrumental grass-roots role in hosting and orchestrating community festivals and meetings.
This legacy of outreach endures. Now known as the St. Luke Tabernacle Community Church, the institution remains a stronghold of faith and community activism. In February, 2014, St. Lukes opened the JoAnn McDonald Health and Wellness Center to offer free walk-in medical service and counseling for those in need.

Plans for a $15 million, 3.5-story apartment building called River Gate near Ohio University's South Green have been approved by the Athens Planning Commission.
Last Thursday, the Planning Commission approved by a 4-1 vote site plans for River Gate, a proposed 232-bed apartment building slated to replace the building that now contains the New Life Assembly of God Church at 10 S. Green Drive.
The planners met after a single requested variance from Athens' property code was approved by the city's Board of Zoning Appeals this past September.
Development of the property will be allowed to proceed even as attorneys for the Summit at Coates Run apartments on Richland Avenue have filed an administrative appeal of the variance the Board of Zoning Appeals granted the River Gate property owners.
On Oct. 9, in a filing in Athens County Common Pleas Court naming the city of Athens, its code director, and the Board of Zoning Appeals, Coates Run LLC attorney B. Lafe Metz requested the court reverse that variance granted for the construction of the River Gate apartment building.
Homestead U originally requested a variance allowing a 4.5-story building, with 82 percent lot coverage, which refers to the footprint a building makes on its property site. Maximum lot coverage allowed by city code is 60 percent.
That variance was rejected. After redrawing plans, Homestead U brought the proposed building down to 3.5 stories, matching code requirements, and requested a variance for 77.5 percent lot coverage. That variance was granted by the Board of Zoning Appeals in September.
Both variance hearings were attended by Coates Run property manager Pam Wells, who objected to the variance requests each time, pointing to the Summit complex being required to satisfy code regulations that Homestead was seeking to skirt.
Dave Anderson, president of Columbus-based student housing firm Homestead U LLC, which owns the River Park apartments and proposed the River Gate project, and Dave Fisher, lawyer for Homestead U, both declined to comment Thursday on a timeline for when construction will start on the River Gate project.
John Paszke, city code enforcement director, said Friday that Homestead U has received a demolition permit for the building that formerly housed the New Life Assembly of God; the company bought the parcel the church sits on for $1.7 million earlier this year.
