United Methodist Historic Site No. 216
This marker was approved by the 1989 Texas Annual Conference and authorized by the General Commission on Archives and History of the United Methodist Church.
The site of the original church is located by a Texas historical marker on the north side of Main St. in the 400 block. It was early named the Littleton Fowler Memorial Methodist Church for its founder.
From its beginning as a foreign mission, established by the Methodist Episcopal Church, the First United Methodist Church of San Augustine has grown into a church with a vision of global missionary ministry.
