Beyond a few directory listings, the church has no real Internet presence. Klondike itself has seen its better days, but with a population of about 125, it is one of the few communities in Delta County that haven't become rural settlements or ghost towns. Chicago Cardinals and college football star Marshall Robnett hailed from Klondike, and he is buried here in the Old Klondike Cemetery with his parents.
"Delta County", in Arcadia Publishing's Images of America series, has a photo of the church, pretty much looking like it does today, but with less population around it. The accompanying text indicates that the church was organized around 1900 by the Robert Hooten family, and the original sanctuary was about a block from here. In 1943, this land was donated, and the current sanctuary began its service, still in use today.
