About Moses Chapel Christian Methodist Episcopal Church
- Moses Chapel Christian Methodist Episcopal Church was founded in 1883, only 18 years after President Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation freeing the slaves, and only 13 years after the Christian Methodist Episcopal Church came into existence. The church was first located on the North side of town on the Cherokee Trail. In 1898, the congregation purchased land and built the church at the present location: 400 East Taylor Street, Gilmer, TX 75644
