Mt. Seal Methodist Church

This Methodist congregation was originally known as Turkey Creek Church. Tradition holds that members first worshipped under a brush arbor. They formally organized by the 1870s. At that time the church was part of the Orangeburg District of the Methodist Episcopal (M.E.) denomination.

In 1887 nine church trustees acquired two acres at this site along “the public road to Indiantown Church.” They constructed a wood frame church likely using trees harvested from the purchased land. By the early 20th century, the congregation had changed its name to Mt. Seal Methodist Church.
