Building Committee of the First United Methodist Church

By Carly Shaffer, Rowan University Libraries Digital Scholarship Center Intern

This is a photograph of the First United Methodist Church's building committee. This committee developed the plans for the new church, which was built by Steve Straga (Straga Brothers). The new building was dedicated on October 2, 1977, the day of the first service. The photograph was captured at the northeast front corner of the new First United Methodist Church.
