Description
Our original charter was a legal document drawn up on June 6, 1853, and filed with Somerset County on June 8. An original of that document still exists in our possession. The Methodist Church in Bernardsville was already in existence at the time that Bishop Edmund Janes assigned our first itinerant preacher. That pastor, William Day, was also responsible for the Pleasant Plains Methodist Church located in the area we now call the Great Swamp. Our first membership was small with only 12 members originally recorded. William Day was expected to ride by horseback between his two churches. Details are sketchy about the logistics of Sunday services, but we know that this arrangement stayed in place for many years and through several of our earliest preachers. 22 South Finley Avenue, Basking Ridge NJ 07920 Phone: (908) 766-1108
