This photo provided by Dan Sczygelski shows our church as it appeared in its original construction and design. The altar covered with a red cloth is at what was then the far west end of the church. In 1986 the main sanctuary was re-located to the north side of the church. In 2000 the west wall was removed and the baptismal font constructed just beyond it. You can find updates on the current renovation at the web site.
