Keene United Methodist Church





Keene United Methodist Church, 1836 (?)

This building in the center of Keene is currently for sale. I have little information except for the following pasted from a Methodist Church website.


"Almost as old as the town itself, this congregation of 25 members is active in local mission and service work. Especially at Christmas, they assist poor families in town, and are supporters of the Food Pantry. Their August fair helps support the church. They work closely with other churches in town.
They welcome all people to join them. You should stop by for a moment of quiet reflection in one of Keene's oldest buildings."

The church has a nice steel tile roof which I have long admired. Apparently the congregation was too small to sustain the church.
