Who we are

Welcome to our church, where spiritual growth and meaningful connections flourish. Experience insightful worship, vibrant fellowship, and opportunities to engage with compassionate service.

Over 150 years ago, on March 29, 1870, Sarah P. Ferris deeded to the Methodist Church the property on which our present church building is located. It is very likely that a group of Methodists had previously been meeting together in the Green Cove Springs area. The following year, in 1871, our first church building was erected and our first pastor, S.S. Moore, was assigned to a circuit that included Green Cove Springs.​

With the property donation, Ms. Ferris helped to establish our church family that grew to impact our local community ever since and continues to share God's love as we grow disciples of Jesus Christ!

Today we serve Green Cove Springs with love and outreach. Once you enter our doors, you are greeted as family!
