Mount Zion’s Reformed church was organized at Manns’Choice in 1873, under the ministerial labors of Rev. N. H. Skyles. The church edifice was erected the same year. Rev. William A. Gring was the second pastor, succeeded in 1882 by Rev. E. H. Dieffenbacher, present pastor. The charge consists of three churches, at Mann’s Choice, Dry Ridge and Mount Pleasant. The membership of Mount Zion is ninety-one (in 1884).
