Mount Olive Holiness Pentecostal Church receives Delaware Historical Marker

Posted

SMYRNA — Delaware State Archives Director and State Archivist Stephen Marz joined Pastor Deborah Lewis, Rep. William J. Carson, Kent County Levy Court Commissioner Joanne Masten, and members of the Mount Olive Holiness Pentecostal Church in Smyrna to celebrate the installation of a new State of Delaware Historical Marker. 

The structure at 139 N. East St. was originally built in 1876 by members of the Centennial Methodist Episcopal Church, and then served as the meeting place for St. John’s Masonic Lodge No. 7 from 1918 to 1935. Since 1935, it has been the home of the Mount Olive Holiness Pentecostal Church congregation to worship.

In 1980, the church was included in the Smyrna Historic District and added to the National Register of Historic Places.
