Yeakley United Methodist Church

That time Yeakley Chapel was on the Smithsonian Folklife website.

"Yeakley Chapel began its life in the smoldering ashes of the Civil War. Named after a Methodist and Quaker family with ties to Tennessee abolitionism, Yeakley has hosted 4-H meetings of local youth and a 1926 discussion of 'How the Rural Economic Struggle Touches the Church.' Its 1852 cemetery includes both veterans of frontier revivalism and the granddaughter of a Syrian Lebanese immigrant. The oldest church standing on Greene County, Missouri’s stretch of Route 66, its 1887 building sits at the crossroads of American religious life."
