I found The Smallest Church In America, while driving home from Florida. It is south Of Savannah, Georgia.
That is quaint, and lovely. You did a great job photographing it.
Good shots! Do they have a regular worship?

Thanks for sharing your find and photos Dean. Love the detail in your interior photograph. The heart pine floors and ceiling are materials I doubt can be acquired any more.
Beautiful shots, especially the interior with perfect verticals.
Great shots and very well done.
Great catch; nice shots, too.

Thank you! I don’t think so. It seems to mean a lot to locals who live there or grew up there.
Thank you for the nice compliments! I should add that the original Church that was built in 1949, burned to the ground in November 2015 by a claimed vandal. It was rebuilt to it’s current state. It was re-dedicated on April 15, 2017.

Yep, that's small enough to be mistaken for somebodies outhouse!
IN the USA likely the smallest. In Iceland "family" churches were routinely that small. The many community churches were not much larger and they had a pew turned backward for "sinners" to sit and could not directly face the "minister. Women that had babies out of wedlock fit that description. Nothing mentioned of philandering males. Many of the small churches were dug lower than surrounding land and covered with sod as were the tiny "houses" if you could call them houses.
