The South Georgia Conference, created in 1866 by the General Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, began at a time of great change in the region. This updated edition of the History of the South Georgia Conference 1866 - 2018 traces the roots of Georgia Methodism from John Wesley's residence in Savannah in 1736 through present day. The subsequent struggles, triumphs, decisions and concerns can all be found within these pages. The South Georgia Conference's come alive with photos and histories documented by each church historian and now compiled within this second edition of History. The Archives and History Committee of the South Georgia Conference of the United Methodist Church collaborated and edited this edition. Anne Packard, Curator of the Moore Methodist Museum and Archivist for the conference, working with the Assistant Curators, Cindy Angelich and Marlee Pack, are indebted to both the committee and church historians for their time and energy in creating this book.

In the late 1800s, Norwegian immigrants began flooding into the Red River Valley. As they moved into the Grand Forks area, they brought their Old World folkways and religious practices. On the corner of Third and Walnut, Norwegian Lutherans built a small sanctuary to house their services. The building mirrored the simple worship of the Hauge Synod, the organization to which this congregation belonged. After merging with two other Norwegian churches in town, the old Trinity Lutheran structure passed into the hands of the Grand Forks Church of God, a congregation that echoed the revival fires of the Second Great Awakening. This is the story of a church building and the two assemblies that utilized it over a 100-year period.
