Shiloh Methodist Church Claremont NC Looking for a church? Join us on Sundays for Sunday school and worship. All are welcome. Shiloh began as a brush arbor located near what is now the west entrance.

The first permanent building, a log structure, was erected in 1869. The original church building was 24×16, crowned with a steeply-pointed roof that was covered with homemade wooden shingles. Inside the one room structure were benches made of split logs. Wilson Crawford served as the first pastor of the log church. In 1914, Shiloh was rebuilt and two side wings were added for classrooms. The curre

nt sanctuary and education building were built in 1946, with dedication services held June 13, 1948. In 1985, construction began on a new fellowship hall, dedicated on October 4, 1987.
