At the center of Mt. Jackson, Reuben Moore gave a one acre parcel for the Christian Ministries for free and a cemetery.
Over a century later it was used as a hospital for wounded soldiers from both armies. I have not toured the inside, but information I have read states that their names and comments are preserved on the plaster walls.
I was looking at a few very old pictures of the church, and where the brick is lighter in color looks to be from where vines had once been allowed to grow to the side of the church.
I am sharing with Inspired Sunday
It looks like it is a tiny church - but has a lot of character.
