The early circuit riders helped form this congregation's first meeting at the William Gordon Farm in the 1820's.
A revival held in Kennedy's Wagon Shop in 1840 led to the building of a church in Metamora Cemetery call "Watcoot." The present church was built in 1853 on land donated by John McWhorter. The Basement of this church served for a time as the village school prior to the Civil War.
First remodeling in 1886 removed exterior staircases and enclosed the central vestibule. Stained glass windows and a hand pumped pipe organ was installed in 1915. Congregational name was changed to United Methodist Church in 1968. |
