		Built in 1890 by William West Durant, Saint William's on Long Point, is a rare surviving example of a small rural church by the famous New York architect Josiah Cleveland Cady (1837-1919).
		The "Look" has been described as "an architecture in which the frame is totally concealed and walls and roof are perceived as thin skin shaped by the enclosed space." Saint William's is a splendid example of one of the most important architectural styles developed in America -The "Shingle Style".
		Over the past several years there have been two main goals for Saint William's on Long Point: to get the Church back in good condition; and to use it in a way that will cover our basic operating expenses.
