100th AnniversaryThis year is the 100th anniversary of the
construction of Grace United Methodist Church. Many churches (e.g.
Trinity United Methodist Church on McKinney Ave.) have been torn
down because of their dwindling congregation, and thus deterioration
of the church. This church has survived these 100 years because
of its congregation and their open-door attitude and service towards
the changing neighborhood, thus keeping the church vital. In addition,
they have come together to organize a capital funds campaign to
restore and renovate the building through grants and donations.
We would like to nominate the Church, and thus, its congregation
both past and present for the Preservation Achievement Award.
