I grew up on the red dirt roads not far from Mt.Carmel Church. Hot summers with the red dust in my lungs, riding a Honda ATC 110,and watching my grandfather till his garden with a mule named Bill are some of my fondest memories.
The history of this church and it's members dates back to 1843. Many of the members, including my family members are buried accoss the road.
