Our History
The history of Central Presbyterian Church begins in 1851 with the arrival of Rev. John Riheldaffer to a two-year-old territory that would one day become the State of Minnesota. Despite being robbed en route to the City of Saint Paul and the cold of a Minnesota winter, the Riheldaffers stayed to found Central Presbyterian Church in February 1852 with seven members.
