Comments: I am one of the volunteers working to save The Old Rugged Cross Church in Pokagon, MI, formerly known as the First Methodist Episcopal Church of Pokagon. Anyone interest in this restoration is invited to contact me.

You mentioned that you attended Albion College where Rev. George Bennard began writing his well-known hymn "The Old Rugged Cross". One of our board members (of The Old Rugged Cross Foundation, Inc.) was a personal friend of Rev. Bennard's and has a lot of stories which I'm compiling for him.

If you haven't been in Michigan for a while, you might want to visit Pokagon the next time you're in the area. You will be amazed at how the restoration of the old church is progressing.
