FORMER St. PETER'S CHURCH in LEWISVILLE, OHIO, 2002
This photo of the St. Peter's German
Evangelical Protestant Church of Lewisville, Ohio was taken in September 2002. The church served its congregation for well
over 100 years. During much of this
time the sermons were in German. It
ceased to function because the aging congregation was unable to support
it. St. Peters of Lewisville joined two
other churches in similar circumstances and in September of 1962, consolidated
to form the Trinity United Church of Christ.
Eventually, the building was sold and pressed into service as an
automotive garage and tire shop as shown above. For pictures of the inside of the building click on "Inside
1" and Inside 2." Click here
for a picture taken of the church in 1979 before
it was modified to a garage. This
building is located at latitude N 39o 45.801' and longitude W 081o
13.116'.
