Assessment
Germantown Presbyterian Church is a PCA congregation in rural Chancellor, South Dakota, in the Siouxlands Presbytery. The church website was last updated January 2015 and lists Patrick Morgan as pastor; Morgan, however, transferred to a Wisconsin OPC pastorate in 2017, so current pastor is unconfirmed via web. Pre-visit phone call advised to (605) 647-5758 or (605) 789-1212.
