St. John the Evangelist Roman Catholic Church (Zigzag, Oregon)
St. John the Evangelist Roman Catholic Church, also known as the Church of St. John in the Woods, is a historic church building located near Welches, Oregon and originally located near Zigzag, Oregon. It was built as a mission church and chapel of ease of the parish of St. Aloysius in Estacada. It became a mission of the parish of St. Michael the Archangel in Sandy, Oregon when the latter was established in 1952.The historic church was built in 1937 in an Oregon Rustic style and officially dedicated on September 6. After the widening of U.S. Route 26 in 1971, the church had to be moved from the property, after which an updated church building was erected. Stained glass windows and log pews from the 1937 building were removed and installed in the updated church, which opened in 1972. The log-cabin church building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.
