In 1892, Rev. Joshua Barbee came to Excelsior Springs, which was founded in 1880, for health reasons. On May 6, 1894, a committee from Upper Missouri Presbytery met in Excelsior Springs to officially organize the Presbyterian Church. Rev. Barbee was installed as the first pastor and given a salary of $100.00 a year.

There were 21 charter members and services were held in numerous locations until a new church could be built in 1902 at the corner of Temple and Benton. Rev. Barbee died just before the church was dedicated.

Then in 1973, under the leadership of interim pastor Dr. Kenneth Berg, a new church was built and later moved into on July 4, 1974. The first service was held on July 7, 1974.

On July 13, 2008 Daniel Bruce Clark became the pastor of Barbee Memorial! Barbee Memorial recently celebrated her 115th birthday!  Barbee has a wonderful past and we know that, with God's help, a wonderful future!
