History
Feeling a need for religious facilities in the Blue Ash area, James H. Johnston, a member and Clerk of the Session of Montgomery Presbyterian Church, organized a Sunday School in his own home and conducted it also for a time in his barn.  Later he moved it to the station of the C.L.&N. railroad at Winslow Park where he continued it until the new Blue Ash public school building was completed in 1892.  Sunday School was then conducted in the school until 1907 when the Blue Ash Presbyterian Church was organized, and services continued to be at the school.

A meeting to organize the Blue Ash Presbyterian Church was held June 4, 1907.  It was moderated by Dr. F. C. Monfort, appointed by the Presbytery of Cincinnati for that task.  At the first Session meeting on June 8, 1907, the Rev. Lou Wallace Gade was called to be the pastor.  Most of the families involved in the new church were members of either Montgomery Presbyterian Church or the Montgomery Methodist Church.

The Rev. Gade held services at Madeira on Sunday morning and Blue Ash in the afternoon.  He continued as pastor until May 1910.  The Rev. Harry McMinn was invited to be the pastor in July 1910. He was pastor of both Madeira and Blue Ash until his death on April 4, 1918.  During Rev. McMinn's pastorate a sanctuary at 9501 Highland Avenue, Blue Ash, was built, the cornerstone being laid in 1912.

On Jun 13, 1918, at a congregational meeting, it was decided to call a separate pastor for Blue Ash church, and on September 8, 1918, the Rev. Garland Shell became the stated supply for this congregation.  With its own pastor Blue Ash could now hold its services in the morning.

During the pastorate of the Rev. John R. Fry, a Christian Education Building was constructed.  It was dedicated in 1956.  the congregation was then "at home" there for 22 years until 1978, when it was decided to relocate to a site with more potential for visibility, growth, and parking.  Three acres were purchased in 1980 on Cooper Road, near Reed Hartman Highway.  Ground was broken for the new building June 30, 1985, and dedication services were held May 2, 3, 4, 1986.

The congregation has seen growth in younger families, and the Church School "runneth over."
