Port Republic, New Jersey

Celebrating the 50th Anniversary of the United Methodist Church:  Recognize the emblem on this headstone? It's the iconic badge of the United Methodist Church, founded half a century ago this week. Recognize the alphabet under the names? It's the Hangul alphabet of Korea. It's a reminder that global Methodism, with its roots in the Wesleyan movement of the 1700s, is larger than the United Methodist Church, which was formed just 50 years ago this week.
