Samuel Chapel observes anniversary

The 141st anniversary program of Samuel Chapel MB Church was held April 23, 2 p.m. Min. Joseph Davis Jr., pastor. “For now have I chosen and sanctified this house, that my name may be there for ever: and thine eyes and mine heart shall be there perpetually.” II Chronicle 7:16

Our church was started shortly after the Civil War ended.

A freedom school was held on this church ground. There was no building here at the time. The people set up a brush harbor for their school. From this very humble beginning Samuel Chapel Missionary Baptist Church was born.

Clabon Jackson started school in the first frame church in 1907.

Our present building was constructed under contract with Bro. Henry Louis Strickland in 1994, Rev. Steven B. Glass was pastor.
