Log: Recovered on Wednesday, 11/5/2025 at 7:07am. Based on what I found online, it seems that the Methodist Church, which was founded around 1866, closed its doors in 2021. It now operates as the Solomons Mission Center, a food pantry. The building itself seems to be in pretty good shape. In the photo, there is a bird perched on top of the station.
