Real Chapel CME celebrates 100 years in Guin


Michael McCollum gives a history of the Real Chapel CME Church during a special service on Sunday, June 30.

GUIN - One-hundred years ago, a group of people began holding church services in a barn along Purgatory Creek south of Guin.
What they started continues to this day as the Real Chapel Christian Methodist Episcopal Church, a church that is now located just up the hill from that same spot.
“This church is full of history and I am proud to be a member of Real Chapel,” said chairman of stewards Michael McCollum during the church’s 100th anniversary celebration on Sunday, June 30.
McCollum, who has been attending the church since he was a child, presented a history of Real Chapel during the service.
