Warm Springs UMC

It was established in 1904 and built in 1905 when it was known as Bullochsville Methodist Church as the town was called at the time. In 1924 the name was changed to Warm Springs after Franklin Roosevelt began going there for treatments at the resort. The original name of Bullochsville was named for the family of his cousin Teddy Roosevelt's wife Martha. The church was taken of circuit in 1948 with it's own full time pastor who also administered to the Foundation for Infantile Paralysis. The church is still quite active today.
