The text in the top landing is very hard to read. It was stamped in the wet concrete, and 77 years of rain weather, wind and heavy foot steps has blurred a bit of it.
"We are a small rural church offering a blended service at 11am with both traditional and contemporary worship music." ~ Church Finder
"Another social outlet just outside of the city limits was the Leslie Methodist Church, which is actually much older than the town.
"A log church building was erected in 1843 as the church was led by Rev. Wm. Schreck, a missionary from Illinois.
"The church often held picnics and basket dinners as well as revival meetings." ~ The Missourian, By Melissa Miller, August 8, 2001
