The photo to the left was taken Christmas Eve 2025 as the light from inside the church is shared with all who were passing by the church window outside...
Hurray!!
The woodworkers have completed our window!!
They will return in the spring when the weather will allow the last of the window sills to be repaired and sealed. Final painting of the entire outside trim of the church will also be done this spring.
Thanks to all who have helped us with this extensive and expensive project! Please consider us in your giving as we continue to fund raise for our windows!
We will celebrate 150 years of Methodism in Harbor Springs in 2026! We will have a very special service on Sunday, October 11, 2026 with our Bishop, Rev. David Alan Bard, here to help us observe this milestone! We are excited to announce that Jamie Platte, will be our soloist for this service!
History Moment:
The Sunday school (1875) and later church worship services (est. 1876) were held in what was then the government school building at 249 East Third Street. Rev. Jonathan M. Whitney was the first Protestant minister in "Little Traverse". The Sunday school soon moved to Parker Hall over Walron, Friend, and Cassidy Stores on Main Street. Property was purchased on May 17, 1877 for $110.00 from Peter Wabigwane and his wife Allen Wabigwane on the current Main & Gardner corner. The warranty deed was notarized by Chief Andrew Jackson Blackbird. The church has the original signed deed in our safe! The north half of Lot 7 was purchased for $150.00 in December 9, 1886 and was first used for the parsonage site and then our current parking lot. The Trustees of the church were Dr. Levi W. Gardner, Charles S. Barton, Daniel C. Harrison and James Pinnock. The property was extremely wet from the many artesian flowing wells in the area with Third Street being more of a creek than a walking path or road... More to come ...
The church building is 100% handicap accessible with special entrance, elevator and bathrooms. Handicap parking is available at both front and back entrances. Ushers and "buddies" are always welcome to help, including rides to and from the church for services and programs.
