From the Lawrence County Memoirs website, "The original church was replaced with a much larger building < snip > on Countyline Road, which was dedicated on Sunday, April 27, 1913. An estimated 3,700 people attended the three sermons held throughout the day. The congregation thrived and eventually celebrated its 100th anniversary in 1984. Due to dwindling attendance the church was closed in late April 2009. The building was soon purchased by the county for approximately $250,000 and renovated into a Lawrence County Court House annex that became known as the Albert P. Gettings Government Center. Gettings, of New Castle, was a twenty-seven-year-old Marine Corps Corporal killed in action in Fallujah, Iraq, in January 2006."
