History of Antelope Valley Church

Picture
Mrs. John Kiley (Sylvia) had a vision, or a dream, to build a church where the pioneer families could go to worship.  It was originally called the Sylvia Unioin Church.  I like to think that Sylvia and all of the others of the original congregations are aware of the work and money being donated to restore this grand old church.  The church was inactive for a few years and then in 1947 it was reorganized by Madeline Rentzsch under the American Sunday School Union.  It was active for 45-50 years. ​

Letter to Mrs. Rentsch from Eleanor & Paul Varce, 1985 about early ministers and members.  File link below for digital photo.
