St. John the Baptist Orthodox Church, Huron, Wisconsin
Церковь Иоанна Предтечи (Хьюрон, Висконсин)
A rural wooden church north of the town of Stanley. Carpatho-Russian settlers arrived in the area in 1901 and first held services in their homes; in 1906 they built a church with a dome and an Orthodox cross. The Chippewa County Historical Society marked the building with a plaque as the oldest Orthodox church in the state of Wisconsin. The parish belongs to the Diocese of the Midwest of the Orthodox Church in America.
Сельская деревянная церковь к северу от города Стэнли. Переселенцы-карпатороссы поселились в этой местности в 1901 году и сначала проводили службы в домах; в 1906 году они построили церковь с куполом и православным крестом. Историческое общество округа Чиппева отметило здание памятной доской как старейшую православную церковь штата Висконсин. Приход относится к епархии Среднего Запада Православной церкви в Америке.
