Our History: A Story About the Cornerstone
Did you know that our building has an authentic cornerstone?
The real cornerstone even contains a time capsule! In 2009, when we were planning the special events to celebrate the 150th anniversary of our church, we tried to discover what was inside. We soon learned that it was an impossible task to access the real cornerstone.
Just as tradition mandates, it is located in the northeast corner of our foundation, and it continues to hold up our building! So a model of the cornerstone was created for the re-enactment of the laying of the cornerstone held in June, 2009. As you can see in this photo, members of the Masonic Lodge participated in this event. The cardboard model of that cornerstone has been spotted lately in different places in the sanctuary, causing quite a stir.
