About
Moving from Tennessee, Ebenezer Hearn was called upon to organize the first Methodist Church of Alabama. What began as a Methodist camp on a Creek Indian site progressively transformed into a building in 1886, now known as Blountsville United Methodist Church. In a local news article in 1886, CF Hamil, the Sunday School Superintendent and Otto Pulls, architect, were commended for bringing “the finest edifice in this whole section of the country.” Today 200 members attend church every Sunday underneath the hand-hewned beams that are still visible today.
