Dedication of Munsey Memorial Church in Johnson City
The Johnson City Munsey Memorial M. E. Church South was dedicated last Sunday, marking a milestone for Southern Methodists. The new red brick structure with white stone trim and blue granite foundation replaces the 1874 building, includes a $3,000 Pilcher organ, a modern parsonage, and multiple memorial windows donated by local families and firms. The ceremony featured Rev. George R. Stuart and a debt of $17,000 raised in minutes, with support from many denominations.
