==History ==
Village Presbyterian Church was founded in February 1949 by Dr. Robert H. Meneilly.〔 Prairie Village was a developing suburb in the 1940s with a high concentration of young families, and no Presbyterian church in the area. Meneilly went door-to-door in the emerging suburb to encourage residents to visit, and begin building a congregation before the building was complete.〔 When the church opened for its first service on Sunday, February 13, 1949, they drew 282 members〔 to the congregation. In a report from Walter Cronkite which was previewed in a 1994 article in the ''Washington Post'', Cronkite described Village Presbyterian as an “absolute perfect example of what is happening to churches all over the United States today in the split between the evangelical right and the more mainstream.”
