McMahan Chapel Easter Sunrise Services

McMahan Chapel is the oldest Protestant and Methodist church in the

State of Texas. Now it’s not the oldest building, obviously. But it’s the

Oldest Methodist church with continuous service, 193 years in

September of this year. It is one of the first 3 churches in the

NATION to receive recognition as a Shrine of Methodism by the

General Commission on Archives and History of the United Methodist

Church.

Please join us for Sunrise Services at McMahan Chapel, 7 am, Sunday,

April 5th. Begin this Easter Sunday with us as our Rev. Catherine

Hanks holds our service in the Bobbie Noble Thompson Picnic Area.

After our Service we will then walk across the road to the Event

Center for breakfast, provided by the members and ambassadors of

the Chapel. We guarantee that you will still be able to make it to the

Sunday School of your choice. Make this Easter Sunday an entire day

of Worship and Christian fellowship that starts with the rising of the

sun through the pine trees of East Texas.

With this we commemorate the good news that in Christ’s death and

resurrection we, and all creation, are continually being made new by

God’s love and saving grace.

McMahan Chapel is 10 miles East of San Augustine and 10 miles West
