The Epworth League is recognized as the official youth work of the church, and is to be operated by The General Board of the Epworth League according to the constitution granted by The General Conference.

Throughout the year the youth put on special Christian skits at worship service, 5th Sunday Night Sing, Christmas and Easter.

The League conducts an annual garage sale and other drives to raise money for it's work and for trips. The youth go on trips during the year to such places as the Riverbanks Zoo in Columbia, Carowinds at Charlotte, Camp Summers and Manget at Orangeburg, and Camp Three Forks Trail at Clayton, GA. These may be day trips or some may extend overnight. At Christmas the youth participate in the annual Hanahan Christmas Parade.

MOTTO
    "All For Christ" -- I will make it my practice to read the Bible and pray at some specified hour each day, to be faithful in attending the services of my own church, and will endeavor, each week, to bring someone to the church service or otherwise do
some personal work for the salvation of souls.

HISTORY
     The Epworth League was founded on May 14th, 1889 to help develop godliness and loyalty to God and our Church among the young people. It is the first denominational youth work in the history of the Christian Church. The name is taken from John Wesley's birthplace, Epworth, Lincolnshire, England.

We are in the midst of developing our website.

Please bear with us.
