Fails WP:NONPROFIT. No evidence this church meets notability guidelines. APK whisper in my ear  11:46, 13 January 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete - I did find some passing book mentions, but only passing mention, and that's pretty much it. If it is notable, it may be in print sources that aren't easily accessible, since the church is almost 130 years old. Unfortunately for the author, in situations like that, the onus is largely on the author to know enough about the subject to be able to find those sources and demonstrate notability.

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Weak Delete - I wouldn't be surprised if such a historic church didn't have some good sources, but I don't find them in a quick search. If someone else can point some out, I'd change my vote. Also, the main editor of the page, User:REVSAB, has a very similar user name to the name of the current pastor, Reverend Seidel Abel Boanerges.Smmurphy(Talk) 14:36, 16 January 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete Like others my searches found nothing helpful to notability. Nothing in the article or sources hint at likely significant coverage.  I admit to not seeing or reading the 68 page book referenced in the article. I assume it is not an independent reliable source. Gab4gab (talk) 16:37, 20 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete My Google search only points to pages regarding events at the church, pages about the church on social media and media publishing websites, books about churches mentioning the church in passing, and pages about the church on travel sites. Nothing that points to notability. TouhouFan9801 (talk) 20:54, 20 January 2017 (UTC)
