Description: After years of holding Brookfield's German Lutheran Church services in storerooms and a tent, Rev. Fred Stein, who takes time from his Chillicothe congregation for the Brookfield members, decided to build a church. He obtained a plot of ground on the edge of town and largely with his own hands built the "Wayside Chapel," above. Parishioners believe it is the smallest church in the state - 14 by 20 feet.
