ABOUT ALDERSGATE

WHO WE ARE 

Aldersgate is a Methodist Church located in North Charleston, South Carolina. We are a church committed to historic Christianity as practiced in the Wesleyan tradition.

​Our focus in ministry is simple: to be disciples who make disciples. We do this through our weekly worship services, our relational and locally focused missions, and through study of God’s word in our classes and small groups.

We believe that God has called us to be disciples who follow after Him, who are constantly being transformed, and who become fishers of men. We invite you to join us as we are becoming disciples who make disciples.

HISTORY

Aldersgate Methodist Church was founded in March of 1946. Originally a small church start in the living room of several local families, Aldersgate eventually gained more members, land, and grew in service and mission to it’s neighborhood. Today Aldersgate is a vital congregation celebrating 75 years of ministry as she looks forward to continued service to God and His Kingdom.

During the first year of Aldersgate, in 1946, the church met outside for open air worship.  Allegedly during this first season it never rained on a Sunday morning.  
After the close of World War II Aldersgate purchased a decommissioned Army Base Chapel. It took three days to move the wooden chapel three miles down what was then a dirt road; nowadays we call it Remount Road.
