Worship Service Bulletin
From a monthly historical series by Bill Kirby, 2016
Who was the most honored member St. James Methodist ever had? Consider Martha Lester. Modest to a fault, successful to the max. She not only had a public school named in her honor, but also a Methodist Church. That’s right; records of the North Georgia Conference, as well as archives of The Augusta Chronicle tell the story of Lester Memorial Methodist Church, a once-thriving place of worship in Augusta’s King Mill community. At one point in 1934, it had 200 members in its Sunday School. . . . Martha could have chosen to live comfortably at the corner of Ellis and Fourth streets, a few yards from St. James’ back door, but she had a mission to help those less fortunate, and she went to the often-neglected mill neighborhoods to do it. She set up a school and taught children who wouldn’t have learned if it hadn’t been for her. That’s why a decade after her death in 1924, Richmond County’s Board of Education built and dedicated Martha Lester Elementary School.
