My Commentary:

This is a two-story, limestone building in the Classic Revival style. The central portion of the main entrance has faux columns flanking each side. This central portion is topped by a pedimented cornice, each elements of this Classic Revival style. The central entryway has double metal and glass doors flanked on each side with a single pane bay window with an etched cross. Small faux columns separate the entry from the bay windows. Above the bay windows and entryway are opaque glass transoms. Above the entry is an entablature that reads: Central Methodist Church. Above the entablature is a glassed-in, stained glass window. On either side of the central portion is a small, square single pane window. The second story features a double-hung window with stone sills and lintels.

In the northwest corner of the building is a cornerstone that reads: Central M.E. Church South 1908.

Information from Church Website:

Behind every picture is a wonderful story of God's creative activity in the world today. They represent stories of faith that have developed over generations. To travel together on life's journey reminds us of God's faithful presence in our church as each person adds their unique gifts and talents to make a beautiful mosaic. Since 1909, Central United Methodist Church has been a place for open-minded, wholehearted, hands-on faith followers of Jesus. Come celebrate with us as we worship together with familiar hymns performed by talented local musicians and listen to sermons that are narrative and engaging. Our liturgies take on a traditional and contemporary shape as we inspire discipleship in all age groups. Holy Communion is open to all people who are in the need of grace.

You can find us participating in the Ozark Area CROP Hunger Walk, knitting handmade blue hats for the 4th grade students at Webster Elementary adding #HatNotHate on the hats, distributing commodities at Crosslines Ministries, delivering Christmas baskets to families in need or serving at the Free Kids Meals or a "Cooking for a Cause" breakfast at the Webb City Farmers Market. In other words, Central United Methodist Church loves community service!
