Doug and Vicki Benson, as well as the rest of the Preservation Committee, are working to save the historic church, which was built in 1895.
BASTROP, Texas — Standing in a peaceful garden in the rear of Bastrop Christian Church, Doug Benson and his wife Vicki Benson think of the past, present and future of the little wooden church.It's a historic jewel to the community that was built in 1895.
Inside of the sanctuary, Vicki Benson shows off an old black-and-white photograph that was taken in 1895 with members of the church back then. She compares it to a more recent photo taken in 1995, 100 years later, to show members from way back when. “The windows are all from England and they are starting to collapse upon themselves,” said Doug Benson.
