Celebrating the founding of a local United Methodist church is time of joy and reflection.
Many local churches are curious about the worship experienced one hundred years ago.
Another aspect of this celebration often includes a rededication service of the church building. Part of this rededication may include the opening of a corner stone. What we have attempted to do here is recreate the various elements of different Methodist Episcopal Church liturgies from the beginning of the twentieth century. The typical worship service highlighted on these pages comes from the Morristown Methodist Episcopal Church, located in Morristown, New Jersey. This worship service is for April 8, 1906.
