First United Methodist Episcopal Church (Lawrence, MA)

The First Methodist Episcopal Church was dedicated February 20, 1948.  The building still stands at the corner of Hampshire and Haverhill Streets.  There were several ME churches in Lawrence in the early years.  In 1911 all the congregations combined in the United Methodist Church on Haverhill Street just east of Lawrence Street, next door to the north branch of the Lawrence Public Library.  That same year the Presbyterians took over the building.  Other denominations have found a home in the building including the present day Ebenezer Christian Church.
