For those who love history with a story. We have it!
Welcome to our family, we purchased the church at an auction, restored the church many years later to give it new life, to maintain the history in our community and to share its' beauty with as many as possible.
The township owned the church and decided to sell it through an auction open to the community, and Fred Avra won the bid.
Fred and Bill grew up in the curves of Algansee, they would be next door at Safford’s General Store visiting Roy & Gwen Dove, they mowed the church yard and played basketball inside the church along with many others in the community. To say there was some sentimental attachment, is an understatement.
As a family we came together and spent many hours restoring the church as much as we could during the summer of 2016, and picked back up in the summer of 2017 for yet another family wedding. The days were long and the nights were short, meals were skipped, days blurred together, but it has been one of the most humbling experiences watching God’s grace bless this building and helping make our dreams a beautiful reality.
