About Munsey UMC
Munsey Memorial began in 1871 as the East Market Street Methodist Church, built of handmade bricks at a cost of $4,000. The church was part of the heritage of the early Methodist circuit riders that brought the gospel to the pioneer settlements of the American frontier. To this day, Munsey continues to take an active approach to meet the needs of our congregation and community. We strive to seek new paths for ministry and mission, not only in Johnson City, but also throughout the world.
