On September 18, 1904, George Henry Greenfield called together a congregational meeting for the purpose of reorganizing the Lamoille church. Five of the original nine members were still with the church from the time it was first organized. At the meeting, the newly elected trustees welcomed Rev. Greenfield as their new pastor. Church services were to be held one Sunday morning a month, and plans were made to build a church in Lamoille. Work on the new edifice was begun in July and by August preparations were being made for the laying of the cornerstone. All of Elko was invited, with transportation, meals, and lodging made available for the occasion. On August 6, 1905, over two hundred people from the community and surrounding valleys gathered just before sunset to witness the laying of the cornerstone. Over the past 100+ years, the church has closed twice, in 1940 for 5 years due to population decline, and again in 1954 when the church was actually dissolved by the Nevada Presbytery who believed that the small handful of members was not enough to sustain a church and pastor. The final reorganization of the church was on December 27, 1955 and since then, the church has undergone a major restoration in the 1970's, an addition of an education center and much needed indoor restrooms in 1981, and the windows were restored in 1986. The 100th Anniversary of the organization of the Lamoille Presbyterian Church was celebrated October 21-22, 1990. In 1994, a second addition that expanded the fellowship hall, classrooms, and kitchen was completed and dedicated. On November 5, 2005, the historic little church celebrated the 100th Anniversary of the dedication of the building itself!
