this is the advent church on perkins valley rd

this is the Woodstock Seventh Day Adventist Church.

I grew up going to this church and I was married in this church. Sadly it's not longer there. The church and the school, which was just down the road, were purposely burned down and a new church and school facility were built.

I lived across the street from the old schoolhouse,and attended my first 10 years of school there.Dad built the house we lived in and did much work on building the church in this picture. Most of my childhood, until I was 18 years old. Was playing in the area of church and school. Always have considered the location as home even though while married for 59 years, my husband and I came back on vacations, or whenever possible. What can I say other than many of my memories are wiped away. However progress has to move on. Thankful the new church atmosphere is so much like the inside of the old church. I am so very thankful for that.

The new church is located to the right of this photo, 'down the road a piece'. It was constructed around 2014 and is all on one-level.
