Grew up going to this church from first to eighth grade every morning. Loved that school and my childhood so many good memories
This is my hometown church. I was the organist at time during High School, was married here in 1962. My brother Marvin and my husband put a new roof on the that era. I remember my husband coming home after doing the steeple and said THATS AS CLOSE TO HEAVEN I HAVE EVER BEEN. Lots of memories in this church and school.
