What we found
We searched for "Chhuria Pali Church" together with Bargarh and India across general web, directory and map-style sources, and found no church listing, social media page, denominational register entry, news mention or website carrying that name.

Local listing sites for that area (onefivenine.com) show only Hindu temples in Chhuriapali, no church.

The findings are summarized here for space; the full research was weighed in the review.
