A JUBILEE MOMENT – MDUMC CELEBRATES FIFTY YEARS OF MINISTRY
On July 13, 1958, led by Rev. D. Lawrence Landrum, Jr., forty-four people gathered for worship at the former Chapman’s Corner Restaurant on Old Katy Road. The church was officially chartered on September 14, 1958. Under the leadership of Rev. Landrum, the church continued to grow and on Christmas Eve 1961 the church’s 400 members met for the first worship service in their new sanctuary on Memorial Drive.
Dr. Chuck Simmons came to MDUMC in July of 1997 after serving many years at Broadmoor UMC in Baton Rouge. Even though he has learned to talk “Texan”, he quickly reverts to his Louisiana roots whenever the LSU Tigers are playing.
