Biographical / Historical
This church was originally called the North Loon Lake Church or the Charge of the New York Conference of the Evangelical Association. The congregation was German speaking and remained with the New York Conference in 1875 when those churches that were predominantly English speaking transferred to the Central Pennsylvania Conference in order to obtain ministers who could preach in English.
