Located at Megargel, AL. 31.38162, -87.42906
Dating back to 1916. Megargel AOG Church
Founded in the brush arbor days of the Pentecostal Movement.
Rev. AL Shell is a name that is synonymous with many if not all the Assembly of God Churches in the Monroe County area.
According to an article in an old assembly of God publication I received a screen shot from, Bro A.L Shell first preached a revival there in August of 1916 in an old building that was obtained to accommodate it.
He then came back in 1920 and preached revivals throughout the area in brush arbors, tents, and vacant buildings.
On Sept 27, 1927 the church was recognized and officially set in order as an Assembly Of God Church.
The brick auditorium was erected in 1954 and 1955.
