Williamson’s Chapel is a community of believers which centers
our mission around the “three greats” of the Gospel. Jesus
gave two great commandments and the great commission. The
first great commandment is that we love God with all of our
heart, soul, strength, and mind. The second great commandment
is that we love our neighbors as ourselves (Matthew 22:37-39).
The great commission calls us to share the good news and make
disciples of all nations (Matthew 28:19-20).
Because of the “three greats”, we are intentional about
Nurture, Outreach, and Witness. Nurture helps us to grow in
our faith through Worship, Bible Study, Sunday School, and
Small Groups. This leads us into a more loving relationship
with God. We seek to grow in our love for others through
fellowship events, and support groups. We also seek to reach
out in love for others through mission support to the Soup
Kitchen, Mooresville Christian Mission, and Mission Offerings.
We seek to provide a faithful witness within our community
through Kid’s Connection, Youth, Vacation Bible School, and
Preschool. We invite you to join on our spiritual journey as
we grow together in Christian Discipleship.

History of Williamson's Chapel United Methodist Church
Williamson’s Chapel was organized at the Red Hill School early in 1912 as a mission. Mr. Tom Williamson donated land, and soon a white frame church was built. This building was located on Brawley School Road. The cemetery remains at this site. The first pastor, Rev. Ebenezer Myers, promoted the building of the church, and music was provided by Miss Ethel Bost, who later became a missionary to Japan.
Worship was held in the frame church until 1938, when this original building was replaced by a brick structure. Rev. JO Cox directed the building program and ministered to Williamson’s Chapel, Rocky Mount, and McKendree churches as a circuit. At various times, other charge assignments have included Fairview, Davidson, Huntersville, Centenary, Triplett, and Jones Memorial United Methodist Churches.
With the coming of Lake Norman, a move was necessary. Duke Power bought the church property and provided land for a new church at our present site. On October 8, 1961, groundbreaking ceremonies were held and construction was begun. The first worship service in the new church took place on August 5, 1962, under the direction of Rev. L.E. Paschal. The church was dedicated on June 20, 1971.
Construction on the new Fellowship Center began in 1998. A master plan was also completed showing the proposal of a new sanctuary, educational space, and a family life center.
God has richly blessed Williamson’s Chapel United Methodist Church throughout the years and we are excited about the blessing yet to be revealed.
