Stories from the Past
Below are links to some stories that have appeared in Ebenezer's monthly newsletter. The stories are a glimpse into the history of the church and the Dudley Shoals area, and a look at some of the personalities that make our church such a great place to serve the Lord. Many of the stories are by Delores Campbell, a long time member and solid supporter of Ebenezer UMC. We thank her for writing these tales and for everyone else who has contributed to our regular "Storytime" in the newsletter.
