The Jackson Chapel church has
its beginnings in the Albert Chapel Methodist Church. Jackson Chapel
"began" in June, 1907, under the leadership of Rev. F.D. Thomas. It was
named after Ike Jackson. A group of trustees was appointed to lead
the church; they were: Hampt Johnson, Ike Jackson, Lewis Pernell, Prime
Williams, John T. Harrell, Lewis Moore, Jim Margon, Adderson Knighten,
Sr., and Caleb Cathern. As time passed, they were replaced by other
members who carried on the work of the church.
"These few faithful members
of the Jackson Chapel United Methodist Church, although small in number,
are doing their very best to push the little church forward to the mark
of a high calling, which is in Jesus Christ our Lord, and Savior." |
