175th Anniversary of the Waukeenah
United Methodist Church
In the year 1837, the Waukeenah United Methodist Church was
established. It began as the Waukeenah Methodist Episcopal
Church. The story of the Waukeenah United Methodist Church
is not so much about land and buildings as it is about the
strong resolve and faith of our forefathers and our present
congregation. The strength of this Church comes from almighty
God and His Son Jesus Christ. This Church is truly,
"THE LITTLE CHURCH WITH A BIG HEART"
"The Lord liveth; and blessed be my rock; and
exalted be the God of the rock of my salvation."
2 Samuel 22:47 (KJV)
This marker was placed on the 28th day of October in the year 2012.
