Presbyterian church celebrates 100 years in Sidney

Light Memorial Presbyterian Church is celebrating its 100th anniversary Sunday.

The Sidney church was formed Aug. 17, 1917, but wasn't voted into the Presbytery of Box Butte until Sept. 11, 1917, Jane Easterly, church board member, said.

The event will be celebrated with a worship service featuring additional music and a piano duet, and a catered luncheon for members and volunteers.
