It was scheduled. The church has been vacant since 2013. Long story short... the congregation got too big, so another church was built in a neighboring community and the congregation was divided. That was the beginning of the end for St. John's, and eventually it was closed. Most of the items of meaning and value were removed long ago and sent to other churches, thankfully. In recent years, the church was for sale but the interior was in need of a lot of work. It was torn down last week to make way for affordable housing and some retail shops.
