Fun Facts: What we know today as the back of the church was originally the entrance, and the chancel had a high pulpit. The entrance and pulpit location were later changed to their present location, both facing the road frontage. The original kerosene lamps, mounted on cast iron brackets, were eventually converted to electric and continue to hang from the pillars today.
