    Notes 
    • “After the wedding, a supper and reception were held in their home south of Deer Creek, Illinois. There was a gathering of Mennonites to help celebrate. Joseph Verkler, an elder in the Apostolic Christian Church who was visiting in Slabtown, was invited to attend the reception. After supper, the couple brought out a game of dominoes for all the guests to enjoy. When they invited Joseph Verkler to join them, he politely declined and said that that was not for him. The young bride witnessed the way he stood for his religious beliefs and did not bend temporarily to satisfy his peers. As time unfolded, Joseph and Magdalena Schrock joined the Christian Apostolic Church.” [5]
