Elloree Met ho dist Church 
In the little town of Harlin Citv, now Elloree, there were no churches 
in 1886. The Methodists of the town attended church at Jerusalem. 
In 1882 the Methodists organized a Sunday School and worshiped 
at Harmon's Chapel, a ginhouse near the southern end of what is now the 
town. Rev. Sifly was the minister. 
A wooden church building was erected in 1893 on the lot donated 
by W. J. Snider. Rev. W. W. Williams was the first pastor of this 
church that faced Main Street. vVhen a cvclone demolished the buildino-
on May 16, 1915, the pulpit, which was near where the entrance of th; 
present church schcol building is, was all that was left. The Methodists 
in 1915 and 1916 used the schoolhouse for worship services. The corner-
stone for a new brick church home was laid on Julv 16, 1916. From 
that time uni.ii about thirty years later Elloree Methodist Church belong-
ed to the Lower St. Ylatthews Circuit. Since that time the Elloree Circuit 
has been formed. 
During Rev. Humbert's ministry at Jerusalem, young Martin Gary 
Arant was called ''missionary boy." In 1920 he answered the Lord's call 
to the ministry. 
In 1914 the Home and Foreign Missionary Societies were united 
into the Missionary Society. Now there are fifty members in three circles 
of the ·women's Society of Christian Service. 
In 1938 the two hundredth anniversary of John \Vesley' s heart 
warming experience was celebrated. 
The Church School Educational Building was dedicated in the 
autumn of 1953. For several months in 1961 worship services were held 
in the school-house while the church sanctuary was being remodeled. 
Presently Rev. Woodrow M. Smith is the minister of the church. 
The congregation is looking forward to honoring its heritage.

From 1984 til the present time, Sept 1994 - 10 years of informa-
tion on the three circles of Elloree United Methodist Women is 
compiled in the following paragraphs. 
The Kate Harbin Circle is the oldest circle of our church and is 
an afternoon circle, meeting for lunch and then the meeting.They 
have approximately 20 -30 members and visit two of our Mission 
project area a year that we support. They also visit the Methodist 
Home in Orangeburg and carry gifts to the residents from our area. 
The Business Womens Circle meets at night and they have nine members. 
Their biggest project is a Christmas Dinner in December for the 
70 and older citizens of the town. They prepare the meal themselves 
and provide a program, favors and Christmas Carol sing-a-long. This 
will be their 25th year of hosting this affair. 
The Friendship Circle is made up of mostly our younger women in our 
church and they meet at night. They have a Mother-Daughter dinner 
each year and send Valentines to shut-ins and older members of the 
church. They have a Secret Pal within their circle. 
All of the circles send Get Well cards, Sympathy, and Thinking 
of You cards. The circles take turns hosting the General meeting 
in October, decorating the church during the special seasons such 
as Christmas, Thanksgiving, Easter and during Revivals. An outside 
Cross is decorated during the early morning on Easter. We have 
made and repair the Crismons that adorn the tree in our sanctuary 
during the Christmas season. We are responsible for decorating the 
tree as well. 
Our major money raising project is sponsoring the Mothers Day Bulletin 
in May. Mothers are listed in memory or in honor and donations 
are accepted and then listed in the Mothers Day Bulletin. In 1994 
the largest amount that has ever been received was $716.00. All of 
this money goes towards missions. We support, Salkatchie, The Meth-
odist Home of Orangeburg, Killingsworth, Wallace Family Life Centter, 
Rural Missions, Alston Wilkes Society, Bethlehem Center, John 1 s 
Island Rural Missions and many others. 
We have approximately 50 women in the three circles and we have 
received the 5-star award many times, we have always paid our pledge 
in full and always have representatives at the District meetings. 
Our pledge usually runs from $500.00 to $575.00 each year.

HISTORY OF ELLOREE UNITED METHODIST CHURCH 
AND THE Elloree Un ited Me t hodist Women 
In the little town of Harlin City, now Elloree, there were no churches 
in 1886. The Methodists of the town attended church at Jerusalem. 
In 1882 , the Methodists organized a Sunday School and worshi ped 
at Harmon's Chapel, a ginhous e near the southern end of what is now 
the town. Rev. Sifly was the minister . * 
A wooden building was erected in 1893 on a site donated by the 
Rev. W.J. Snider. (He was Elloree's founder and provided sites to all 
the town's congreations.) The Rev. W. W. Williams was the first pastor 
to serve the church that met in this new building. It was a white 
wood framed structure facing Main Street. 
The Women ' s Missionary Society was founded in March of 1907. 
' I 
ff. liL4/ ,/v 'f i 
Records of 67 years show much activity by these ladies of the church . IV('' o . ,..,~S+,rtt', 
The Rev .. J.W . Neeley was pastor and member of the society. Gas 
lights were purchased for the church by the society in 1909. In 
1914, the Home and Foreign Missionary Societies were united into the 
Missionary Society . 
A cyclone demolished the church building on May 16, 1915. 
The pulpit, which stood near the present nave ' e entrance to the 
church school, was all that was left . The school house was then 
used for worshi p. On July 16, 1916, the cornerstone was laid for 
a new building. The present brick structure was completed by 
rr,~v '- i 
,.-f i- ,; -=-
, May 15, 1917, when the Missionary Society hel d its first meeting here. 
On August 14, 1917, the la~es voted to buy carpet for the entire 
expanse and footrugs; $373.42 - installed. 
The church is a converting fellowship. Through it God calls 
people to turn from sin to a life of Christian service . "During 
Rev. Humbert's ministry at Jerusale~, young Martin Gary Arant was 
called 'missionary boy.' In 1920, he answered the Lord's call to 
C; 
the ministry."* To improve the work of Christian nurture, the Church 
School Educational Building was constructed. It was dedicated in the 
autumn of 1953. Church School Superintendents like Hillie Felkel, 
James Morgan Sprott, Herbert Bowling and Cecil Smoak, along with many 
fine teacher, have provided training and fellowship to adults and 
children. One of our own, Tommy Huffmas has served as an agricultural 
missionary to Uganda. The Three Circles of the church supported him 
in this mission. 
In 1961, the worship area was remodeled, creating more room for 
the choir. An electric organ was installed. God has blessed this 
church with members who have contributed greatly to ministry through 
music. True examples are Pauline Ulmer who was choir director for 
many years and Donna Mae Montgomery who has served as organist for 
all the years since the church owned an organ. She retired in 1994. 
Circle groups I, II, III were formed in the Women's Missionary 
Society in the early 1930's and after many years of service consolidated 
and made one circle, the Kate Harbin Circle. In 1960's the Business 
Women's Circle was organized. The annual Christmas Dinner for Senior 
Citizens is a project of this group. In 1981 the Friendship Circle was 
added consisting of another generation of Methodist Women. 
As American Methodism celebrates its bicentennial, Elloree U.M. 
Church is moving into her second centruy of service to God. The 1984 
purpose statement, developed by her leaders, could serve as a worthy 
goal for the future: "Elloree U. M, Church exists to develop Holy living 
in ourselves so we can serve others and spread the gospel of Jesus 
Christ our Lord".

which are able to make thee wise unto Salvation through faith which 
is in Christ Jesus. 
THIS IS MY CHURCH 
Here through beautiful services, I come close to God and to my 
human friends in worship. 
Here in many ways I learn the truths by which I may live a brave, 
happy, and useful life. 
Here I gain strength by which I become that which I have learned I 
ought to be. 
Here I find comfort in my sorrow, courage in my struggle, joy in my

ENOREE 
United Methodist Church History 
Enoree United Methodist Church was organized during the year 1890 under the ministry 
of Reverend David R, ("Doc") Brown - with 37 charter members. At that time it was part 
of the Belmont circuit (now Cross Anchor circuit) which was made up of the following 
churches: Enoree, Trinity, Belmont, Shilo, Hebron, Grace Chapel, and Tabernacle. 
Enoree Methodist Church was probably a mission station for the first three years of its 
existence since it received financial help from Domestic Missions - $300 in 1890, $60 in 
1891, and $83 in 1892. 
The Enoree Church remained on the Belmont circuit until 1894. The South Carolina 
Annual Conference met that year in Laurens, South Carolina on November 21 st. It was 
at this time that we have the first records of Enoree circuit, composed of the following 
churches: Enoree, Patterson's Chapel, Bramlett, Concord, and Woodruff. The 
membership of Enoree church was 119 at the time the Enoree circuit was organized. 
Enoree circuit existed until 1953, when Enoree became a station charge. 
During the years 1888-1893 all religious services in Enoree were held in Enoree's first 
school building, which stood only a few feet back of the present location of Enoree 
Baptist Church. Methodists, Baptists, and Presbyterians held regular services in this 
building until 1893. Also, during these early years two evangelists, Reverend Kinard and 
Reverend Quattlebaum, held tent meetings in a lot opposite the old school building, The 
Methodists and Baptist congregations realized a rewarding increase in membership as a 
result of these services. 
In 1888, Enoree Manufacturing Company began the operation of a cotton factory at 
Enoree. This company, seeking to improve the community, built the brick church 
building which Enoree Methodists now occupy. This building was designed to be a 
place of worship for all Methodists, Baptists, and Presbyterians in Enoree. It was 
dedicated during the year 1893, with Bishop W. W. Duncan preaching the dedicatory 
sermon. 
The Presbyterian group, weak in membership, from the beginning, in the year 1906 or 
1907 disbanded. Its members became members of the Methodist or Baptist 
congregations. Harmonious relations existed for all the years it was a union church. 
Sunday school remained united until 1923, when the Baptist congregation moved into a 
building of their own. The Methodists continued to use the original brick building, which 
is the present sanctuary of our church today. 
Enoree Methodists have remodeled and modernized the church numerous times since 
then. In 1923-24, during the pastorate of the Reverend 8. M. Robertson, an educational 
annex of seven rooms was added to the right rear of the original building. The building 
committee for this project consisted of: J. Y. Bryson, A. J. Lamb, R. W. Westmoreland, 
and H. W. Moore. The cost of the project was $2,500. During the pastorate of 
1 
Reverend J. T. Gregory (1940-43) more rooms were added to the first annex. The 
building committee for this second project was composed of E. L Ramey, C. E. Crocker, 
A. J. Lamb, and T. Boyd Cooper. The cost of the project was $3,675. During the 
pastorate of Reverend J. A. Chandler (1952-54) the need for more room arose. It was 
decided to build an annex at the left rear of the original building, facing the highway. A 
building committee was appointed, consisting of the following members: C. E. Crocker 
(chairman), J. H. Edge, L N. Workman, T. 8. Cooper, and Mrs. W. W. Gregory, Jr. The 
fund raising campaign for this project continued during the pastorate of Reverend J. L. 
Jett, with additional funds being raised each year. The building was completed early in 
1958, during the pastorate of Reverend William R. Claytor, Jr. 
The new annex is a two-story building with approximately 2,400 square feet of floor 
space. The first floor includes a social hall, with kitchen and dining facilities, and a 
restroom. The top floor has a small chapel, four classrooms, and a restroom. At this 
time, the first educational annex which houses six class rooms, a large nursery, and two 
children's restrooms, was completely renovated and brick veneered to match the new 
wing. The approximate cost of this project, including furnishings, was $26,000. 
On Sunday, January 19, 1958, "Open House" was held. Several former pastors, a large 
crowd of former members, local friends, and current members inspected the church 
facility and enjoyed the fellowship. 
In 1973 Mrs. Josephine Irby died leaving the bulk of her estate to Enoree Methodist 
Church. In 1974 a new heating and air conditioning system was installed for the 
sanctuary. During 1973 and 1974 stained glass windows were installed. New pews and 
heating and air conditioning were added to the sanctuary in 1991 at a cost of $40,000. 
During the same year renovations including heating and air conditioning were added to 
the two educational wings. All remodeling and renovations done since 1974 have been 
funded through the generosity of Mrs. Irby and the financial oversight of this fund by the 
late Hugh Mccarley and Niles Hanna, Sr. 
On February 4, 1958 Enoree Methodist Church had a total membership of 212; the 
Sunday School enrollment was 152; the MYF had an enrollment of 20 members; the 
WSCS had 27 members; and Methodist Men was being organized with the prospect of 
about 30 charter members. 
Reverend William R. Claytor, Jr. served from 1957 until 1961 at which time Reverend 
William L. Edwards assumed leadership and served until 1965. 
During the period from 1958 until 1995 church membership declined from 212 to 69 in 
early 1995. This decline in membership was due largely to deaths in the church family 
and members moving out of town. Another contributing factor during this time was the 
appointment of numerous "student pastors" and "retired supply pastors"; who were 
unable to give their full attention to the needs of the church, which resulted in a decrease 
in interest. 
Out of this group of leaders, Reverend Jerry Watson is fondly remembered for showing 
an active interest in the church and its people. Reverend Susan Ashworth also left a 
heritage of love among the people. 
2 
Reverend Ashworth was active in reviving the church choir, which remains a vital portion 
of today's worship service under the leadership of Tim Daley and Joan Turner. The 
choir adds inspiration to the services and to the outreach of the church. 
Reverend Angelia Price served the longest tenure during this period, six years, 1989 -
1995. The baby grand piano was dedicated in memory of Eularene Martin and Charles 
"Shorty " Laurence during Reverend Price's tenure. Reverend Price is responsible for 
the spotlights being installed in the front of the church. 
Reverend Louis Adams served from 1986 until 1989. Reverend Adams led the church in 
a positive direction, singing in the choir and shepherding the flock in a caring way. 
Reverend Dewey Brazil served one year as a retired supply and impressed many with 
his dedication and sincerity. 
In June 1979 Enoree became a part of the Trinity/Enoree Charge, which continues to the 
present. Two ministers have died while serving the church. Reverend J. E. Brown 
served the church twice: 1929-1930 and 1943 until his death in 1944. Reverend J. 
Henry Wofford died within a month of his appointment in 1979. 
In June 1995 Reverend Bill Bynum was appointed and continues to serve to the present. 
Membership has rebounded to 90, and the church has attained its apportionment goal of 
100% since 1995. A steady outreach of visitation in and around the community has 
been maintained with active involvement from Niles Hanna, Sr., Dot Rice, Jenelle 
Vaughn, and Dot Harrison. A program targeting the children of our community and 
surrounding area, "Kids for Christ" was begun in 1997. A new church sign was 
purchased in April 2000. 
The church building is noted for its lovely windows, portraying scenes from the life and 
ministry of Christ. The windows are dedicated to members and friends of the church, 
some of whom are deceased. Hugh McCarley, Sr. initiated this project. 
As of this writing in August 2000 the social hall annex is

Definitions 
• Baptized members are people who have been baptized by water in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit and 
who wish to be (or in the case of infants and children — are sponsored to be) members of a local congregation of the 
United Methodist Church using the whole of Baptismal Covenant I or II. 
• Professing members are those who have professed the faith of this church themselves, using the language and ritual 
of Baptismal Covenant I. (Note: As of the 2004 Book of Discipline, the vows printed in Baptismal Covenant I, II and IV 
must be used for professing membership in this church. Baptismal Covenant III should thus no longer be used unless 
the Disciplinary vows are used in place of those printed. See Book of Discipline 2004, paragraph 217). 
Both of those categories of membership represent people who are members both of The United Methodist Church and 
of the particular local congregation. 
• Affiliate members are professing members of another United Methodist Church who may be temporarily far from 
their home congregation and wish to connect with the life, ministry, and watch-care of a congregation nearer to where 
they now are for a time. 
• Associate members are non-United Methodists currently located at some distance from their home church. They 
have been baptized by water in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit in another Christian denomination, wish 
to connect with a local United Methodist Church, but wish to retain their current denominational affiliation rather 
than become professing members of The United Methodist Church while in their current location. 
  
THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN UMC MEMBERSHIP TYPE AND MEMBERSHIP STATUS 
Membership Type Overview: Affiliate members are already professing members of The United Methodist Church but retain 
membership in another local United Methodist Church.  Associate Members belong to another denomination and are not 
seeking membership in The United Methodist Church. 
Membership Type Details: 
1. The baptized membership of a local United Methodist church shall include all baptized people who have received 
Christian baptism in the local congregation or elsewhere, or whose 
membership has been transferred to the local United Methodist church subsequent to baptism in some other congregation. 
2. The professing membership of a local United Methodist church shall include all baptized people who have come into 
membership by profession of faith through appropriate services of the baptismal covenant in the ritual or by transfer 
from other churches. 
3. For statistical purposes, church membership is equated to the number of people listed on the roll of professing 
members.  
4. All baptized or professing members of any local United Methodist church are members of the worldwide United 
Methodist connection and members of the church universal. 
¶ 227. A professing member of The United Methodist Church, of an affiliated autonomous Methodist or united church, or 
of a Methodist church that has a concordat agreement with The United Methodist Church, who resides for an extended period 
in a city or community at a distance from the member’s home church, may on request be enrolled as an affiliate member of a 
United Methodist church located in the vicinity of the temporary residence. The home pastor shall be notified of the affiliate 
membership.  Such membership shall entitle the person to the fellowship of that church, to its pastoral care and oversight, and 
to participation in its activities, including the holding of office; except such as would allow one to vote in a United Methodist 
body other than the local church (this specifically refers to the office of Lay Member to Annual Conference). However, that 
person shall be counted and reported as a professing member of the home church only.  
A member of another denomination may become an associate member but may not become a voting member of the 
church council.  Special Note: Although associate members cannot vote as part of the church council, they can, with the 
exception of Lay Member of Annual Conference, hold church office and in that capacity vote as part of church committees to 
whom they belong such as Trustees, Finance, SPRC, Lay Leadership, etc. 
¶ 230.3. The Constituency Roll, containing the names and addresses of such persons as are not members of the 
church concerned, including unbaptized children, youth, and adults whose names are not on the membership record, and other 
nonmembers for whom the local church has pastoral responsibility. 
Membership Status, on the other hand, is defined by the local church and has more to do with a member’s participation. 
Typical definitions of status may include: 
• Active 
• Inactive 
• Homebound 
• Military 
• School (College) 
• Nursing Home 
• Institutionalized 
Conclusion: If you are a member of a United Methodist congregation in another community, you can become an 
Affiliate Member for the period of time you are with us.  Alternatively, if you are a member of another denomination, 
you can become an Associate Member.  Good news: neither of these relationships affects your church membership in 
your home community. Associate membership entitles you to the same privileges and pastoral care as our other 
members. More good news: If you choose, you can attend committee business meetings, propose and vote on 
motions the same as the regular members with the exception of those of the Church Council. Furthermore, you can 
also take any leadership position as an officer of our congregation excluding that of Lay Member to Annual 
Conference. Lastly, affiliate membership allows you to do all that Associate members can plus vote as part of the 
Church Council.
