Assessment
Historic Tyler congregation tracing back to the Methodist Episcopal Church (South). Now in fellowship with the Global Methodist Church after the 2022-2023 East Texas disaffiliation wave. Identifies publicly as a Wesleyan-tradition Methodist body. Pastor name needs verification — staff page does not publish a lead pastor.
