This is a beautiful valley southeast of Liverpool, stretching
away from the west bank of the Susquehanna, in Perry County. In this
valley a number of members reside, who usually attend preaching at Liverpool and
constitute a large portion of the congregation there. But as they have a
considerable distance to Liverpool, from 1847 to '51 Rev. W. Weaver preached for
them occasionally in a school-house in the valley, and so did Rev. J. W.
Hackenberger and Rev. J. H. Davidson does the same at present. As the
number of members is increasing here, a suitable house of worship will be
required. May the kingdom of Christ come and extend from shore to shore!
"Jesus shall reign where'er the sun
Does his successive journeys run;
His kingdom stretch from shore to shore,
Till moons shall wax and wane no more."
