Bill > H4241

This resolution congratulates Mt. Lebanon Methodist Church of Greenwood, South Carolina, on its 190th anniversary in 2025, highlighting the church's long history dating back to approximately 1835. The resolution notes that early church records have been lost, but a historical document from 1897 indicates the church was built around 1835 and had officers such as George Holloway, Martin Hacket, and Stephen Ross in 1845. The resolution emphasizes the church's ongoing spiritual mission under current Pastor Tony Watson, describing Mt. Lebanon as a "beacon of light and a community worship center" that has served the Greenwood area for almost two centuries. The South Carolina House of Representatives formally commends the church for its nearly 200 years of service to God and the community, and resolves that an official copy of the resolution be presented to the church, recognizing its continuous commitment to religious worship and community support.
