LaGrange Methodist Church History and Growth
The LaGrange Methodist Church traces roots to 1839 with Rev. Adam Poe and its reorganization in 1867 under Rev. L. M. Pounds and Holbrook. It built a new church from 1874 to 1874, dedicated by Bishop Foster, with a parsonage later added, a Ladies Aid Society, and a robust Sunday School, choir, and school. The church has remained a central village institution through pastors like Darkey, and its steeple was destroyed by a storm 39 years ago.
