CHURCH TO OBSERVE 100 YEARS - The oldest Moravian Church west of the Mississippi in the United States will mark its one hundredth anniversary June 10. The Gracehill Moravian church in rural Washington was built in 1866. Pictured above, the plain wooden church is a marvel of craftsmanship which has endured with little modification since it was built one hundred years ago. — Journal Photo by Tom Kuncl.
