      <p class="wft1">At one time there were three churches serving the Bordulac 
area worshippers.&nbsp; The Holy Rosary Catholic Church was moved to Bordulac from 
Carrington in 1903.&nbsp; It was brought by sled on the snow pulled by an 
extraordinarily large team of more than 20 horses.&nbsp; Wendelin Zink was the head 
driver.&nbsp; The church was originally built in 1887.&nbsp; The sacristy and west 
addition were built in 1904-05.&nbsp; The first priest was Father Galloway, and the 
last priest was Father Felix Lubas.&nbsp; The Holy Rosary Catholic Church closed its 
doors in 1982.&nbsp; Before the church was moved into town, Mass was celebrated in 
private homes.&nbsp; Mrs. Joseph Ihringer was the first funeral Mass held in the new 
church.</p>
      <p class="wft1">About ten years after the start of the Catholic Church, a 
Congregational church was built.&nbsp; It was moved to Carrington about 1950 to be 
converted into a dwelling.&nbsp; The church bell for the Congregational church was 
donated by John Roademan, who farmed about six miles from town.&nbsp; He promised to 
buy the bell on one condition, that it would be a bell he could hear at his 
place on Sunday mornings.&nbsp; Such a bell was found, and when the church was moved 
to Carrington, the bell was donated to the Holy Rosary Church.</p>
      <p class="wft1">A Lutheran Church was built on Section 1 east of Bordulac.&nbsp; 
The Lutheran Church was eventually moved to Grace City, where it burned in the 
summer of 1982.&nbsp; There is a Lutheran Cemetery left on the section 1, church 
site.</p>
