Antioch United Methodist Church
— United Methodist Church Registered Historic Site No. 369 —
Many Godly pastors have served Antioch, supported by a faithful membership. As a student appointment for many years, the church nurtured young ministers, giving them the start that led to a major impact for the Kingdom of God. Many have made significant contributions to the larger church as college professors, authors, missionaries and District Superintendents.
On this hillside, the church stands as a spiritual beacon at the light of God’s love and a hallowed place on holy ground.
