Preserving the heritage of Myersville, Wolfsville, and the historic surrounding communities since 2015. Join us.
The Myersville-Wolfsville Area Historical Society is pleased to once again offer the Christmas Tour of The Churches of Myersville, Harmony, Wolfsville and Foxville. The tour is free and self-drive at your own pace on Saturday, December 10 from 1 to 5 PM. The first suggested stop is at Myersville Town Hall, 301 Main Street, where the tour map and brochure is available, along with historical displays, refreshments and restrooms. Please note that your internet and GPS connection can be intermittent in some parts of our mountains. MWAHS is grateful to JB Seafood for its generous donation to defray costs of this event.
The churches open this year are:
Mt. Zion United Methodist Church
Myersville Church of the Brethren
St. Paul's Lutheran Church
Harmony Community Lutheran Church
St. John's Lutheran Church
Grossnickle Church of the Brethren
Salem United Methodist Church
Hillside Chapel (Formerly Pleasant Walk United Methodist Church)
Mt. Bethel United Methodist Church
Mt. Moriah Lutheran Church
St. Mark's Lutheran Church
Each church interior, altar and choir space will be beautifully decorated in keeping with its Christmas tradition. There will be church docents at each to guide visitors and answer questions. All of these churches have their roots in small congregations formed in the 1700s or 1800s. Their buildings have changed over time, but still reflect a strong sense of community and location. For any questions you have about the tour or the churches, contact Fonda Gormer at 301-293-2436.
If the snow emergency plan is in effect in Frederick County, MD on December 10, the tour will be rescheduled for Sunday, December 11, from 1 to 5 PM.
