Adaton United Methodist Church History
Adaton United Methodist Church was organized in August 1878, and was known then as Steele's Chapel in honor of Mr. Robert Steele and his mother, Mrs. Charlotte Steele, who gave the land for the church and cemetery. The first services were held in an old "cook house" near the site of the present location, by a Rev. Miller. From 1856 until the church was officially organized in 1878, five or six ministers gave a number of years of service in this small building.
In 1880 the first church was built. This church was used until a larger one was built in 1909 at the same location and served until the present brick building was erected in 1963. Jimmy L. Hollingsworth, Pastor, led the first services in the new church on December 1, 1963.
Starting in the early 1860's and for about forty years thereafter, the minister came once a month. In the early years he was known as a circuit rider and served a number of churches. By the year 1917 the minister had five churches to serve; Steele's Chapel (Adaton), Longview, Smyrna, Pugh's Mill and Bevill Hill. The Smyrna church was discontinued in 1949. In 1950 the Pheba and Cedar Bluff churches were placed on another circuit. In 1964 Bevill Hill was assigned to the Louisville charge, leaving Adaton, Pugh's Mill and Longview together.
Today the Adaton Church is active, vital and growing, and offers a wide range of ministries and activities. There is a preaching service each Sunday morning, Sunday school, and fellowship. There also is two Wednesday night prayer meetings, one for older adults and one for younger adults.
In addition to the worship services there are men's and women's clubs, children and youth activities, and many other ministries supported by the church. Many opportunities for fellowship are scheduled year 'round. Come and be a part of this growing tradition at Adaton UMC.
