The Stone Church is part of the Community Christ Church in Independence. The Stone Church sits next to the sixty-three acre tract of land consecrated and dedicated in August 1831 by Joseph Smith Jr. as the “land of Zion and the spot for the temple.” The cornerstone of the building was set in place on April 6, 1888. Unfortunately the doors to the church were locked.
