       White Oak United Methodist Church
 
  The present church building was constructed in 1952-53 upon the foundation
of the 1888 building. A fellowship hall including kitchen and Sunday School 
rooms were added as part of this building project. Dr. A.E. Schaefer was 
district superintendent and Rev. Ennis Sellers was pastor. The building 
committee 
was E.F. Calhoun chairman, R.A. James, W.V. Powell, Mrs. J.W. Calhoun and  
S.E. Godfrey, Jr.
  In 1953 the church was recognized by Emory University and the Sears- Roebuck 
Foundation as Alabama's "Rural Church of the Year" because of outstanding
achievement during 1952-53.
