Sunday August 9th
"Born to dream"
This coming Sunday, we will have a visit from Reverend Joseph W Hudson, who was the Pastor in the late 1890’s of what was then known as Cherry Lane Methodist Episcopal Church. He will tell us about his journey from his home state of Delaware to serve as a circuit rider at Cherry Lane Church and several other area churches. The visit with Rev. Hudson will be portrayed by Bob Riday, who just happens to be the great, great grandson of Rev. Hudson. Come hear Bob and Pastor Wendy have a spirited conversation about what it was like to be a circuit rider in the Poconos “back then”. You will hear about how the Hudsons and the Sebrings got together, and what life might have been like at Spragueville M.E. church, just up the road from the sawmill and the railroad in what is now known as Analomink. We hope to see some interested visitors from the Spragueville church for what promises to be an interesting and amusing journey back to a different time in our local towns. This service is part of the Cherry Lane United Methodist Church’s 160th anniversary year celebrations. If you can't join us in person, click on the links below.
