Fifty years ago, the church was celebrating its 150th anniversary. The Journal covered the event with the article below, which appeared in the paper on June 13, 1969. The article is not so much about the church's history as it is a snapshot of how the anniversary was going to be observed.
As the article written by Staff Correspondent Ruth Bradford notes, the church was founded on the tenth day of June, 1819 at a house on “Whittlesey Ridge.”
The 200th anniversary was noted in the Morning Journal back in May of this year in this article by Jordana Joy, which also provides a nice history of the church.
