Saxe Main Page. Surrounded by the small village of Saxe in Charlotte County, the church has known times of numerical prosperity and times of challenge. Today, Southall Memorial continues in faithful witness as it overcomes the recent loss of many of its older members and reaches out to young and old alike to become disciples of Christ Blessed with inspiring facilities for worship and ownership of a former schoolhouse which now serves as a community center for Saxe, our church is in a unique position among smaller churches. Sunday School each week and a worship hour each 2nd and 4th Sunday of the month are at the center of our activities.
Traditional functions sponsored by the church include stews, fish fries, and homecomings.
A recent and exciting addition to our outreach is the use of the community center for youth retreats. Purchased by the church after World War II, the building had previously served as a school house. Read about the community center's history. At the turn of the twentieth century, a Methodist Sunday School was conducted in private homes in Saxe. The pastor of the Charlotte Charge, Rev. J. K. Walker, was instrumental in organizing the church and beginning the task of building a sanctuary.
