Ruins of Oldest Protestant Church in America Found at Jamestown, Christian News: "Researchers at Jamestown, Va., may have found the site where the first Protestant church in North America was built."

In addition to being the site of the oldest known Protestant church in the United States, the building would have also likely been the location for the wedding of Pocahontas and John Rolfe, a marriagethat temporarily brought peace between settlers and Native Americans.

The church, which was 64 feet by 24 feet, also runs contrary to the common narrative on religion linked to Jamestown colony.
