History
Samuel James Rea (1886-1966) was in 1930 commended to the Lord's work by Mascher Street Gospel Hall, and Hatboro Gospel Hall in Pennsylvania, the latter of which he planted after three years labor. Prior to that, with William Baillie, he helped plant an assembly in Valens, Ontario, Canada. He and James McCullough labored seven years in Maine, results included the planting of the assembly in Madison.
"The Madison Gospel Hall, north of Augusta, began in 1951 through the efforts of Ervin Wacome, Sanford Wacome, Ralph Crouch, Effie Emery, and Nina Henry and their families. The group met first for four months at a schoolhouse at Blackwell Corner, then for 12 years on Main Street. In 1964, the assembly moved to 84 Old Point Avenue, and from 1986 to the present have been at their current location on Highway 148, Madison. About 10 adults and children attend the Madison Gospel Hall."
