After we left Big Valley we headed off to a nearby community to check out a small church. Chris remembered that the church looked sort of abandoned. When we arrrived, we discovered that they church had been all fixed up. A prop had been added to support a sagging wall, and the building had new siding and a new roof. It almost looked as though someone was converting it to a residence. We were sort of reluctant to hang around, and felt awkward about going to the door.
Then a lady wandered over from a nearby house and asked if she could help us. We explained what we were doing. She told us that her son had bought the church and fixed it up. It was not to be a residence, rather the family used it as a private church for their own services. It had once been an Anglican Church, but now had no name. It was really interesting, and the interior of the church still held all of it's original charm.
