The "Harrington Methodist Church", item # 3991 is located in Harrington, Maine. By 1830, there were more than half a million members of the Methodist denomination. During this time, it was the leading denomination in most states. This charming, country church's steeple includes a large clock, which many churches had, to remind parishioners that worship time was close at hand. While the clock holds a practical meaning, many see the steeple itself as a religious symbol, humanity reaching toward heaven.
