When Rev. Andrew J. "Joe" Donnick, a student pastor serving St. George Island UMC & First Friendship UMC, was killed in October 2005, St. Paul's, Leonardtown had just gotten an associate pastor. After a period of time where the District Superintendent came down to serve the two churches, the Conference moved the associate from St. Paul's to serve St. George Island & First Friendship. In 2007, the Conference decided to merge the 3 parishes & eventually they created a new "charge"/parish involving the 3 churches & re-named it "First Saints Community Church - A United Methodist Congregation" The 3 existing churches all became "campuses" of the new parish.

There is a plaque in the cemetery which says:
This half acre parcel of land is given in loving memory of their grandparents, Mr & Mrs. James R. Mattingly, their father Mr. J. Moakley Mattingly Sr.: and their aunt Mrs. Bessie M. Church by Mr & Mrs. Alfred S. Mattingly and Mr & Mrs. J. Moakley Mattingly Jr.
