As part of Streetsboro’s Bicentennial Celebration, the Streetsboro United Methodist Church held its Aug. 28 service at the original Methodist church building now located at Hale Farm and Village in Bath.
Ushers, musicians and the Rev. Josh Elliott dressed in period attire. In honor of John Wesley, founder of Methodism, Elliott used excerpts from Wesley’s sermon “The Scripture Way of Salvation” as his sermon. Hymns for the service were the traditional “I Surrender All” (1869), “Amazing Grace” (1900), and “Rock of Ages, Cleft for Me” (1830).
