THE
OLD CHURCH BUILDING
|
 |
The
original St. John’s M.E, Church was located at the corner of Black
Horse Pike & Greentree Road. The M. E. signified Methodist
Episcopal. The church was built at a cost of $ 5000 and was
completed in 1856. For 70 years prior to this, the congregation met
in a nearby schoolhouse. By 1883, the church had 30 members. St.
John’s shared Pastors with other churches but since 1910, we have
had our own Pastor.
