“Several weeks ago, friends from Indiana and myself had the blessed experience of visiting RRMH. We so appreciate those who have maintained the cemetery and replica of the log church. Such a peaceful atmosphere in which to pray and worship. We truly were blessed. Also enjoyed using the self-guided walking tour of the cemetery. We are recommending this to our friends. Thank you.” Linda Garner
