History

Historic view of Centenary UMC.

Situated on Main Street just across from the Franklin County Courthouse, Malone: Centenary United Methodist Church is a visible and historic landmark in the heart of Malone, New York. A Methodist presence was established in 1806 shortly after the town was formed from part of the town of Chateaugay in 1805 – first as “Harison”, after Richard Harison who had purchased the land and founded the town, later in 1808 to “Ezraville”, after Ezra L’Hommedieu, and finally to “Malone” in 1812 .  The distinctive Centenary United Methodist Church building, with its red brick exterior and tall clock tower steeple became a prominent fixture on Main Street in 1866 with generations of congregants worshiping within the walls ever since.

Our building stands out, and that is wonderful. But we want to be known for more than our building. Our love and commitment to the community of Malone is what we value most. This is the place where every week you can get some food shared with care and kindness. This is the place where people reach out to mentor and assist.  This is the place where if you are having a bad day, there is someone to listen and help.  This is the place that will welcome you always as a Beloved Child of God! Your thoughts are welcome.  Your doubts are welcome. We are all in this together. God is here, ready to connect with all of us in a fresh way.  Come, be among friends. We want to make Jesus more real through the quality of our loving – won’t you join us?

Come, put your faith into action at Malone: Centenary United Methodist Church!
