Somerville Methodist Church cares about one thing more than anything else: Jesus Christ. We are a family of individuals that have found hope in Jesus, and simply want as many people as possible to experience that same freedom.

Somerville Methodist Church has been serving our community for over 190 years! Our current sanctuary was built in 1917. Our first official service in the new sanctuary was not until June 1918. The earliest documented Methodist sermon in Somerville was delivered in 1828 by a circuit rider identified as Reverend Thomas J. Neely. Our church was first mentioned in 1830 when we joined nine other Methodist Churches to form the Bolivar Circuit. Our first church building known as "Green Coe Chapel" was built on our current campus on July of 1837, and on February 19, 1838 was deeded as the Methodist Episcopal Church. In 1917 the "Green Coe Chapel" was torn down, and our current sanctuary was erected and completed in late 1917.

What's the bottom line? Somerville Methodist Church is committed to fostering a family built around hope: hope for the future, hope for the better, hope for progress, and most importantly, hope in Jesus. As we move forward as a church family, inclusion and belonging remain at the center of who we are as followers of Christ.
