Description
Excerpted from the website:
- History
- Mt. Olivet was organized in 1907, when a small group of African Americans were successful in persuading the American Baptist Home Mission Society to grant them a contract of organization. The church was originally located on the Northwest of Portland, at Broadway and Everett. In 1921, to get the church on the "proper side of town," the Klu Klux Klan donated some lumber to help the church relocate to the Northeast side on the corner of NE Schuyler and 1st Avenue.
