Information

The current Methodist Church steeple has a slight lean to it. Circa 1938 the minister Jim Wilson fell a big black oak that stood beside the church. It hit the steeple and knocked it awry. They straightened it as best they could, but its still leaning a bit.

The stained glass windows that were once in the Presbyterian Church are now in the Methodist Church. The building was occupied by the Grange when church disbanded. Windows ended up in Methodist Church because, it's been said, members of Grange were not comfortable holding dances and events in front of those windows!
