During the year 1858, the ladies of thr
Parish, which hart been called St. Mark’s,
organized a sewing society to aid in erect
ing a church building. They succeeded in
raising several hundred dollars, which
they deposited in a ban if in Savannah.
By tiie subsequent failure of the. bank, the
money was lost, in February, 1859, Bishop
Elliot sent tile Rev. Robert Crocs to take
charge of the parish. Services were held

of the parish, and a small house, which
had been huiit for a schoolhou.se, was
purchased, and titled up in a plain man

Dr. Faster left in 1861, and was succeeded
by Ids •brother, the Rev. George Faster,
in October of this year, owing to the prog
ress of tlie civil war, all the citizens left
Brunswick, and Mr. Faster went to Sa
vannah. in November, 1866, the parish was
reorganized when the Rev. Joshua
Knowles took charge. During his incuin
bency Mr. Knowles reported forty min mu
r.icants in the parish, lie remained about
a year in Brunswick, and was followed hy
tin* Rev. Ha in. J. Pinkerton, who became
rector in Novc-mher, 1867. Mr. Pinkerton

seeond Sunday in November, 1869, the Rev.
f’harles 11. Coley became rector, and re

ing all these years, through the vicissi

has preserved an unbroken organization
ami has steadily grown in influence and
usefulness. Her rapid growth necessitated
the formation of another Methodist eliuivh
in IM*l, which w.is accomplished in the
building and organization of McKendive
church.
The auditorium of the First Methodist
. hmvh is large and comfortable. The church
is well organized in all departments. It
now has a membership of nearly 300.
The Sunday school, l'pworth league and

The first attempt to organize a Crosbyte
rian church in Brunswick was made by
the Rev. C. B. King, of Savannah, under
the orders of what was then the presbytery
of Georgia. The mooting Wits held on
January 27, lKfiT, in the old city hall. tin n
standing in Hanover park, an.l fifteen per
sons gave their names as those desirous
of organizing a Presbyterian church. Af
ter some general instruction from Rev
Mr. King, Mr. T. Moulding Stacy was
elected an elder and duly ordained and
installed to that office. During the sue
feeding six months eight persons connect
ed themselves with this church but. on
account of the removal from town of th<
only elder and most of the members, tin
organization was discomtlinued floiiii' time
during th>* year lKfiS.
By order of Savannah presbytery (this
presbytery having been founded in th
meantime ami taking part of the territory
once covered by the presbyt* ry of Georgia).

The Jewish synag igue, Temple Beth Te

raised by the Radies’ Aid Society amt * üb
senptions among the Jews of the city,
who responded lib i illy. Tb-* l.adi s’ Aid
Society succeed* and in raising a large sum of
niomw b> a series off iirs, which were
largely atiended hy not only timsc of the
Israelite faith, hut Christian belief as w 11.
The temple is a beautiful structure, Goth
ic in style, finished in antique oak and
architecture; was erected at a cost of $9,000.
It has a sealing capacity of over 300 while
its membership numbers over 100.
The Temple Beth Telieloh was and dicated
in lsmi hy the eminent Rabbi Wise, of Cin
cinnati.
The first rabbi in charge was Rabbi Rab
bino, who. from the time of the dedicatory
ex uvis* s until 1893, atiministei rl to the
spiritual w nuts of his congregation and
was much beloved and honored by them.
He left the city to assume cha.ge of the
synagogue at Jacksonville, Fia.
The Temple Beth Tetieloh had two other
rabbis, but at present there is no official
head. Services haVe been suspend and tor the
summer, but i rabbi will be secured and
services resumed this coming fall.
The controlling bond is composed of the
following wel known business men of
Brunswick; M. Elkan. president; M.
Kaiser, treasurer, and J. B. Ab.ams, sec
retary.
SB .1 tide's Episcopal Church.
St. Jude’s was tile outcome of u consul
tation in the fall of 1888 hetwten the Rev.
Mr. Dodge, of St. Simon’s, and tin- rectors
and vestry of St. Mark’s church.
The town had then a large and rapidly
increasing population, with only one small
house of worship, affording hut insufficient
opportunities for church attendance; so it
was determined to build the new church
where it was most needed.
In the winter of 1888 the Rev. Mr. Dodg*
built the church, without even asking finan
cial assistance of the people, and ihe Rev.
Mr. Winn, then working cn the island,
was asked to take charge, edimtiing that
in eleven years there should he a good i
congregation.
The church was opened for divine ser
ve© the 23d of June, 1889, and from that
time to the ptvsent it has only once been
closed for two consecutive Sundays, when
the priest in charge was ill in Atlanta.
In January, IS9O, the church was conse
crated hy Bishop Beckwith, assisted by
Rev. Messrs. Lucas and Winn.
In January. 1891. the late and deeply
lamented Rev. Robert S. Barrett held a
week’s ‘ mission” in St. Jude's, which re
railed in much good to the whole com
munity. Mr. Barrett, who was accounted
the most attractive preacher in the south,
has recently gone to his rest, but his in
fluence is still felt for good and his mem
ory revered by all who ever heard him
tell the things concerning the kingdom of
God.
Mr. Barrett was nobly assisted in the
daily early communions by one of the saints
of God, the late Rev. H. K. Rees, whose
earnest piety graced a cultivated mind and
v. hose sympathetic heart and sweet cheery
manners brought sunshine into every house
ho entered.
The people of St. Jude’s can never forget
these devoted men. not the work they did
la Brunswick.
The work id St. Jude’s church has been
as largely educational as missionary. The
i unday school taught the children rever
ence, unselfishness and devotion to the
church.
For the last six vgts the Parochial
si hr.il has been an institution in New
Town. There are scores of well taught
(hildren in Brut swick who owe all their
schooling to St. Jude’s, nearly one-fifth of
litem having been taught free of charge.
This most practical good work lias been
sustained in great part and encouraged by
Miss Filen King, of Washington, D. C\,
ever since 1891. Besides helping to pay the
teacher’s salary Miss King pays every year
for the children’s water picnic, the last of
which came off recently.
FU. Jude’s is now thoroughly established
find wion the R. v. Mr. Winn celebrates
his eighth anniversary ther* on the third
Sunday of this month, preparatory to leav
ing Brunswick in the fall, he will bequeath
to his successor a mission that must exert
a salutary influence on the community for
(he years to come.
Saint Fraud* Xavier.
For many years Brunswick was a mis
t-ion station of the Georgia diocese and up
to about the middle of 1889 had no resident
pastor. Bishop Thomas A. Becker, early
after his installation, saw the promise
which the field here offered for good work
and sent it as resident priest Father Hen
r.essy, well-known in Atlanta, Macon and
Savannah, where lie had served, and well
qualified by ability, education and experi
ence for the important work of the grow
ing parish to which he had been assigned.
Father Hennessy found the church op-
pressed and discouraged by debt with a
small membership and in by no means a
hopeful condition, llis predecessor, fliough,
had the loving affection of his congregation
and had laid good foundations upon which
Father Hennessy could build well.
Rather Hennessy was succeeded in time
by other pastors and they each in turn
have worked with an indefatigable will
power and determination with a result to
day that the Catholic church of this city
numbers in it some of Brunswick's best
people.
McKcndrec Mel lmmHml I'liurclt.
McKendree church is the daughter of the
First Methodist church. It had its begin
ning under the pastorate of Rev. McK. F.
McCook, who was then a most eloquent
ami influential minister of the gospel. His
colaborer was Rev. Walter Jones, an
earnest and zealous young preacher. This
was in 1891, and in that year the present
church edifice was begun and almost com
pleted. At the conference of 1891 Mr. Jones
was transferred to another field of labor
and Rev. Ed F. Cook was appointed his
successor. He entered upon his labors full
of zeal and determination. The member
ship lad to be organized. There were
many Methodists who had allowed their
membership to lapse. Under the pains
taking ministry of this faithful man of
God these nominal Christians were col
lected together and to them were added
several transfers from the old mother
church. In this way the nucleus of the
church Was formed. Mr. Cook was tireless
in his efforts to build up all the interests
of the church, both material am) spiritual.
The great Head of the church smiled upon
his labors and crowned the new organiza
tion with His rich blessings. The spiritual
vitality of the church has always been re
markable. It is still her uim to exhibit
to the world the purest form of vital Chris
tianity.
When Mr. Cook had served Ihe church
four years, the full limit allowed by tin*
Methodist discipline, he was transferred to
First Methodist church, and Rev. George
N. McDoneil was made hU> successor. Under
his pastorate the church continued to thrive.
It was he who organized the Epwortli
league in McKendree and which has since
enjoyed unusual prosperity. This chap
ter of the league was named in honor of
its organizer. Mr. McDoneil was released
by the bishop in September of 1896, in or
der that he might enter Vanderbilt uni
verslty. He had won a warm place in
the hearts of his people, and they were in
deed reluctant to give him up. His unex
ptred term was completed by Rev. S. C.
Hoyle, who soon won the coiiildence and
love of his Hock. Mr. Hoyle was trans
ferred in December of last year to Scot
land. The present pastor is Rev. J. C.
Parker. . .
McKendree, located on K street, is a
beautiful and commodious church edifice,
and Its pastor and membership are al
ways glad to welcome the stranger, tin
poor and destitute, to worship within its
sacred precincts. Services are held every
Sunday at 10:30 a. in., 3.30 p. in., and 7:20
p. in. Prayer service 7:30 p. m. Thursdays.
Everybody is cordially invited to attend
these services.
Second Advent ihrimiuii tliureh.
The Second Advent Christian church a.t
Brunswick was organized the 20 th day
* f November, 1885, with six member? and
one jenny in the treasury. At iiist they
encountered great opposition, which hin
dered their progress some, hut their united
and untiring efforts were blessed by Him
who had called them into the work anti
liom this small beginning, besides doing a
vast amount of work in upper and middle
Georgia, it has grown into a well organ
ized conference of twenly-two other
churches of the same faith in South Geor
gia and Florida, with upward of 700 mem
l ers and sixteen regular ordained minis
lers. Today their church property in
Brunswick is valued over SI,OOO, all paid
for and dedicated to God.
This people hold as their particulai
tenets of doctrine the second and speedy
turning of Jesus; holiness of heart and
life; the literal resurrection of all tin*
dead; the mortality of man; the final de
struotion of the ungodly, and tin r iga
of the saints on earth.
We do not boast of numbers or our age
but Bible truth as doctrine. We hold reg
ular weekly meetings at the church, cor
ner D and L streets, wh* re we will I)

I'll.si Hit pt Ist Church.
The Baptists were the first denomination
to organize and build a church in Bruns
wick. The organization was formed in Au
gust, 1855, by Rev. T. B. Cooper with nine
members, viz: John S. Alarlin and wife,
Ben Farmer and wife, Lewis Harris and
wife, Mrs. 'll. E. Houston, iMiss Minnie
Anderson and James Club. Mrs. Ruth 11.
Marlin and Mrs. M. E. Houston are the
only surviving members of the original
number. For thirty years the Baptists
Worshipped in the church near Magnolia
park. In ISSfI, during the pastorate of Rev.
E. Z. F. Golden, D.D., the present build
ing was erected.
The one thing for which the church feels
most profoundly grateful is the number of
splendid characters she lias helped to
build during the past forty-two years.
The present condition of the church is
very encouraging. Many signs of life and
growth are evident. From nine the church
has grown to more than !ioU mem
bers. The following are the pres
ent presiding officers: Walter M.
Gilmore, pastor; F. E. Twitty, superin
tendent of Sunday school; C. D. Ogg,
president of Baptist Young People’s Union:
A. T. Putnam, president of board of trus
tees; Mrs. G. W. Blanton, president of
Ladies' Aid Society. The future is bright
with precious promises. To be a life-saving
station, rescuing men from death, is the
church’s highest ambition. "Loyalty to
Christ In all things at all times" is her
motto.
