I believe this was originally a Methodist Church. It’s the only public building I was able to find in the crossroads community of Texas.

I was married at Prospect in 2011, shortly before it went from being a Methodist Church to non-denominational. My family has plots in the cemetery dating back to the late 1800’s. I did a lot of historical research on Prospect because our family farmhouse very close by. I’m happy to share photos of the interior and my own historical research if you’re ever interested in learning more!
Yes, it was a United Methodist Church, and I was the last United Methodist clergy to serve under appointment there. It was officially closed by the North Georiga Conference of the United Methodist Church at the 2007 Annual Conference. It was closed because the congregation no longer wished to be United Methodist. The congregation purchased the property shortly after its closure. I only served one year there. It was my first appointment.
