There isn't much to tell about this church. I think it was built sometime during the 1920's. It was built in what is called the Lakeview Community here. This is on the Rosebud Indian Reservation. White settlers started to move into this community about 1912. While Indian allotted land was held in trust, there were provisions then where they could get their land removed from the trust and be sold. About that time and after the start of World War I, there was a demand for land, and a food shortage. By the 1920's this area had become mostly a white settlement.
After the drought and depression years of the 1930's many people had moved away so there were no longer services in this church. About 1950 the St. Francis Mission moved this church to an Indian Community called Two Strike. This is where it sets now. I don't think it has been in use now for several years either.
My dad was the "straw boss" when they moved this church. He supervised the jacking up and loading it. It had a basement under it so it may have been quite a project to roll it off the foundation and basement and onto the moving trucks. I think it was again set on a basement where it is now. I don't believe my dad helped unload this church and put it on the new basement.
I have never been inside it.
