The charming church was completed in 1894 and "it was surrounded by a white picket fence to keep the cows out of the church yard." It is across Route 259 from the Lost City Post Office.
From there we drove toward Mathias.
The Ben Mathias Barn (the large one on the right) is spacious and sturdily constructed. It was built by Wade Snyder for H. Riley Heishman (20th century).
We've been there before but it was eleven years ago. That was the first Heritage Weekend we attended, and we've been back many times since then. The sites vary from year to year so there's always something new to see.
Very nice little church that
