Harmony Grove United Methodist church began in 1836 as Crossroads Church. A cemetery from Crossroads Church is located on Lawrenceville Highway adjacent to the strip mall behind the Jimmy Carter Blvd Home Depot. In 1859 a fire destroyed the original church and a new church was built on land that was donated to the church. The new church was renamed Mount Calvary. Following another fire the church moved to its present location at 50 Harmony Grove Road in 1881. Again land was donated for the use of the church. Harmony Grove was officially organized in 1882. Harmony Grove UMC continues to move forward as we live out our mission to make disciples. Enpowered and guided by the Holy Spirit, we reach out and welcome all people to Christ’s love through worship, spiritual growth, service, and fellowship. Our vision is Families Serving Families…in Our Community.
The entrance to the main sanctuary is the Narthex where refreshments are available at the welcome center before and after services. The classrooms are on halls branching off this area and downstairs.
The former sanctuary, Pollard Hall, has recently undergone a renovation to a modern multi-purpose facility with multi-media capabilities. The main area is used for dining, yoga, concerts and programs.
The Hattie Chewning Library has many resources for children and adults.
This is a multi-purpose building with an open gymnasium area, restrooms and meeting room.
A brick Labyrinth is positioned to the right side of the Sanctuary in front of the cemetery entrance.
Our Labyrinth is available to the public. The first Saturday in May is designated as World Labyrinth Day where Labyrinths worldwide are walked at 1 pm in each timezone. Join us for this yearly celebration.
Contributions of engraved bricks are still available. Brick orders are placed periodically.
