New Hope Methodist Church

Spillman, Louisiana

According to the sign, the church was established by circuit riders in 1812, though the building doesn't look that old. Online it says average attendance is 17. Those 17 people do a good job of maintaining the building and adjoining cemetery.
Such a small congregation! A beautifully kept building and a lovely composition of it

Wow- they sure do- and I'm surprised the denomination hasn't closed them down (and glad they haven't!). Good shot.

@olivetreeann @grammyn Makes you wonder how they manage to hang on. The website of the Methodist conference has a section on church history, which is where I've found a lot of information. Not much on this church, though.

Love the contrast between the size of the tree and the church.
