1. Christ Reformed Church Marker
The congregation was organized May 4, 1747 by the Rev. Michael Schlatter who was sent by the Synods of Holland to Pennsylvania. On this site stood the first church, a log structure, which was replaced in 1798 by a brick church. This edifice enlarged and a second story added in 1877 became known as "old" Christ Church, renovated in 1896. It was used until April 7, 1963.
