Our Sunday Services & Seminar Events
The Church of the Atonement does not have a regular rector or priest. Each summer visiting Episcopal bishops and priests are invited to preside over our services while enjoying short vacations at a donated residence located near by the church.
Our services usually last about an hour. An inviting outdoor coffee hour follows each early service and precedes the late service.
Our History
The Church of the Atonement is on the National Registry of Historic Places. It started with the unfinished home of fisherman Charles Gesler,
purchased by the Diocese of Fond du Lac for $125. Bishop John Henry Hobart Brown conducted the first service on August 12, 1877. The Church originally had year-round services and in winter the seating capacity fell from 85 to 65 to make room for a wood stove.
