Description:
Hebron M.P. Church was established in 1888. The church was built on land donated by Lloyd King. The land around the church, including the land that is currently owned by Delaware State Forests, use to be corn fields.

Interestingly, this church has NEVER had electricity!

Hebron M. P. Church has its Homecoming on the last Sunday of September so if you go by on September 28, 2013 you will be able to see the interior of the church.
