HOLY ROLLER. The New Bethel Church rolled into Panora Tuesday from its previous home 13 miles southwest of Guthrie Center. Final worship services at the rural Methodist Church were Oct. 27, 1985. Before ceasing operations because of declining membership, trustees voted to donate the 73-year-old building to the county conservation board for relocation at the Turn of the Century Museum in Panora. Footings have been poured for the church, which will be moved to the museum site later this week. The relocation project is being funded entirely by donations.
