About us
Since beginning preaching more than 50 years ago, Reverend Bill Davis has touched the lives of thousands of people as a pastor in churches both large and small.
As the pastor of Overshadowed Ministries, his mission to spread the Truth of Christ continues.
Constructed in 1890 and purchased In February 2000, the pastor and founder of Overshadowed Ministries, Reverend William Davis, rescued and restored this historical gothic influenced church.
A principal window expresses the religious nature of these historic churches, as seen here with a gothic pointed arch. This beautiful elongated gothic window is centered in the front gable. Two slender side windows each of two complete the picture for this beautiful stained glass window.
The renovation has now made room for two large classrooms as well as a banquet room and a large kitchen. An area was added to the west side of the original structure fifty years ago. It has now been divided into an office, nursery and a conference room. Two restrooms were added to this space in 2004 when the Sanctuary was enlarged.
A tremendous amount of restoration has taken place in the Sanctuary. The new twenty-four foot section across the north side of the building also provides a large platform for the organ, piano, and baptismal as well as the pulpit. Dividing the platform from the rest of the sanctuary is an altar for kneeling.
