Little Beach Stone Church
The history of Redpath Memorial Presbyterian Church is as unique as the beach stones used to make this church in 1921. After a fire destroyed the original church, Reverend Redpath worked tirelessly to build this little chapel. After he died in 1926, the small congregation renamed it in his honor.
When lumbering in the area declined, the population decreased, and eventually the little church was abandoned. It stood empty for decades, until the 1960s when the church reopened to a small congregation. Today, summer services are conducted , mainly by lay persons and visiting speakers.
Seen in Cross Village, Michigan.
