Description

This photo may be the only one in existence showing the INTERIOR of the original wood church (which was converted to a worship space from a deserted turpentine shack). Three elders (left to right): Joseph Mikler, ST., Michael Mikler, ST., and Martin Stanko) are seated at a rudimentary table and seem to be conducting some business for the church (note papers and pencil). There was no electrical power in Slavia during the time the wood building was used for a church, so this may explain why all other photos of the early congregation were taken outdoors! A mounted print of the original photo (courtesy: Katherine and Ethel Mikler) was scanned at SLLS, 2001 for the church's 90th anniversary display.
