Toms Brook UMC


This Methodist Church was built in 1955. The original church was built in 1879 in a different location. 

The church is located along U.S. 11, the historic Valley Pike. 

InSpired Sunday.
The town of Toms Brook is small but is known for a Civil War battle fought throughout the area in 1864. A nearby interstate exit is also called Toms Brook but you can't see the town from the exit.

There is no apostrophe in the name because the highway department standard for signs and maps is to drop apostrophes.

    A nice looking church. I like the huge window in front, I wonder if it's stained glass.

    Pretty church and interesting history... I quite tempted to adopt that apostrophe standard myself!
