In 1893, the settlers built a small rock church on the north-east corner of Section 15, Township 7 South, Range 45 West  (County Roads 41 & FF) 10 miles North, 1 mile East of Bethune, Colorado. The structure stood until after the wood frame church was built in 1926.

"The year 1893, in spring these pioneers decided to build a church 24x40x10 out of rock. Each married family had to get eight load and the single members had to get four load of stone.  Mr. Dobler was the carpenter. All work was donated.  Rev. Leup and G. Jansen officiated."  [Source]
