From the Church website: "Christ Church IU at Worton Parish is a spiritual haven for its congregation. The church itself, an unobtrusively elegant mid-19th century brick sanctuary,(1850) is on the historic registry as is its 18th century sexton’s house. IU stands for Isaac Usilton, who gave both the land and the money to build the original sanctuary. It’s been Christ Church IU (IU to those of us who love it) since the first church was built in mid-1700’s. The sexton’s house, which we restored with our own backbreaking labor and sweat (along with several generous donations), is the last surviving piece of the early 18th century village of IU Crossroads."
