St. Michael's Episcopal Church is part of the Episcopal Diocese of Northern California. This congregation does not have its own web page nor could I obtain any historical information on this church. I did find a bronze plaque hanging in front of the church that reads:
ST. MICHAEL'S EPISCOPAL CHURCH
TRUMBO HALL IN MEMORY OF
SPENCER & ALICE TRUMBO
DEDICATED 3-6-61
I'm to assume this church was erected in 1961. There is a small bell tower on the roof of the church that contains an older bell and gives the impression that this bell might have been home to a much older church from the same congregation, possibly even on the same property before this church was built. Further research could confirm this.
