Fun Facts

Stones used as ballasts that were carried over by ships from England were used in the construction of the church. It was one of the first buildings to use stonework in its construction and earned its nickname “Stone Church” early on.

In two of the stained glass windows there are mistakes, as the panels were switched upon installation. We like to say that it goes to show that we can come before God with all our mistakes and still be something beautiful!
