We celebrated Tranquil’s 200+3 Years of Worship
Tranquil UMC is known as the “birthplace of Greenwood’s Methodism.”
Visitors and members were asked to fill out a name tag before entering the sanctuary. Tranquil history books were also available.
Former ministers of Tranquil – pictured at top right is Rev. Bob Stillwell, who delivered the message for our Anniversary/homecoming service on Sunday, May 7.
Rev. Stillwell reconnected with a Tranquil member.
Pictured are uniforms and trophies from Tranquil’s winning softball team.
Youth, Girl Scouts and Women’s Ministry photos were on display.
A well-filled dessert table had a good variety
to complete a delicious meal.
Visitors and members filled the fellowship hall, enjoying the food and the homecoming displays.
Pictured left to right is former minister, Rev. Luke Mims; current minister, Rev. John Bolin; and Tranquil members, Mrs. Judy Davis and her husband, Rev. Jim Davis.
A picture of the church was used to make a special cake for the homecoming celebration.
