North Boulevard Church of Christ was founded on June 15, 1947, when over 150 worshipers met together in an old barn that had been converted into an auditorium on the corner of Lytle Street and North Tennessee Boulevard. North Boulevard’s start was the result of over five years of planning, fund-raising and praying by a group of Christians from East Main Church of Christ located just off the square in Murfreesboro. One important motivation for the foundation of North Boulevard was the need for a congregation within short walking distance of what was then called Middle Tennessee State College. The East Main church contributed $5,000.00 to start the congregation. During the first year of North Boulevard’s existence, elders and deacons were appointed and a full-time minister was hired. By the 1950’s North Boulevard was a fast growing congregation with several ministries and the need for a larger building. A colonial style auditorium with classrooms downstairs was built and dedicated in 1952, and by 1964 the old barn had been replaced by an educational wing on the North Tennessee site.
