Citizens of the Rock Church community and surrounding areas donated the funds to erect this little country church about 1906.  According to Janet Saltsgiver, the magnificent steeple was struck by lightning sometime after this photo was taken.  "Rather than replace it," said Saltsgiver, "the church family at that time decided to cap it off, and make it less a target for lightning to strike twice in the same place."  The resulting repair work left the structure looking as it does today.
