Providence Ward

 Built from 1869 to 1873, the old Rock Church, in the center of Providence (just south of Logan), is a beautiful example of pioneer architecture. Originally just one large room that served as a chapel, cultural hall, and community center, it received additions over time.

The church was sold in 1968 and served a variety of functions, including a reception center, fabric store, and assisted living center. Currently, it serves as a bed and breakfast, as well as event center.

The shadows at the time of day I visited made it difficult to properly photograph the building, so I apologize.

In 2012, an article was posted that explained that the bed and breakfast was struggling. However, since the center is still running, I assumed it made it through the difficult economy of the time.

This is a gorgeous building, and I'm glad it's been preserved.
