The church steeple is an elegant example of the
artistry of renowned architect David Hoadley. The steeple was
recently restored. The church was built
in 1819 and is on the National Register of Historic Places. The
steeple contains a bell that was hauled by sled over snow and ice
from Albany in 1820. The bell was rung so vigorously at the
conclusion of the Civil War that it cracked. For More
information, see the Church History.

Stewardship in the 1700s: According to the church minutes and the
pastor's journal, the congregation supported the church by donating
items such as wood, pork, wool, apples, turnips, and corn.
