Smallest Church in America

The small church was beautiful, settled in an area with pine trees draped in Spanish moss. A stained glass image of Jesus was behind the pulpit. There were three rows of four chairs for a total seating of 12. A small bell tower was located at the front left entrance to the church. Signs indicated that security cameras were in place.
