This church was organized in 1900 and built the original part of this building in 1902. The stone used to build it came from a local quarry. There was a bell tower above an entrance where the stone panel between the windows and the little tree in this photo, but it was dismantled and the steel went to the war effort in WWII.

x The historic marker at School House Hill Park has an illustration of the church from the early days when the bell tower was still in place. The church building is west of Broadway (SH44) on Main St.

x About Us We started traveling Historic U.S. Route 66 as a destination in 2009. It's like a 2,400 mile long drive back in time from Chicago to Santa Monica! more
xDid You Know: Many parts of the old 4 lane Route 66 were reverted to a 2 lane road after 66 was realigned to the interstate. In many places the abandoned lanes are still there.
