Hopewell Methodist Episcopal Church
established:1830
place:Samuel Martin's house
first pastor:
Hopewell Methodist Episcopal Church was organized about 1830, at the house of Samuel Martin. It began with a very limited membership, consisting chiefly of the Martin family and Culwell Williamson. A hewed log church, located about one and one fourth miles northeast of Pharisburg, was built and served as the house of worship till the present frame building was erected. A protracted. meeting was conducted by Rev. Longfellow about 1858, which resulted in a great increase of members. The church has since been weakened from a variety of causes, and at present there are no regular services.
