July 2008 marks the 125th Anniversary of Snellville United Methodist Church in Snellville, Georgia. We’ve come a long way from our humble beginnings in 1883 when Reverend Betts, an evangelist, conducted a revival in this community. From these services, came a group of spirit-filled believers who organized Snellville Methodist Episcopal Church, South.
Thus began what we know of today as Snellville United Methodist Church. The vision of our original church founders for a place of worship planted the seeds of faith in a small community.
During the month of July, Snellville United Methodist will be celebrating our 125th Anniversary! Our Homecoming series, beginning July 13, is appropriately entitled “Celebrating the Past – Looking Forward to the Future”. Among the celebratory events, we will be welcoming guest pastors, celebrating persons active with the church for 50 years or more, and enjoying a reunion choir.
Snellville UMC is blessed with a rich heritage and progressive vision for the future. Please join us in July as we celebrate the past and look forward to the future with grateful anticipation. http://www.snellvilleumc.org
