Brief Description of Subject: The stained glass window to your right as you enter the church is dedicated to the Bement Family. Ella Bement Foreman very graciously gave the information which ensues. Lewis Bement was a dairy farmer. As a result, he seemed to always have some work to be done and did not take time to go to church on Sunday morning. After his health failed and he was forced to retire from farming, he began attending church regularly. However, his children always went to Sunday School and later joined the church. Some of us taught Sunday School classes, served on the Administrative Board and Lois, Cleo and Silas sang in the choir and quartet. Today, in 1987, Ella, (now deceased) Lena, Lois, Louie and Silas are members here and take an active part in promoting the Lord’s work. Ilah Mae and Cleo are members of the Fowerlville United Methodist Church and o their work for the church there. Helen is married to a minister who had a church in Indiana and now in northern MI. Brother Bob is a member of the United Methodist Church in Burton, MI. Juanita, sister, and husband Wayland Haskill were members of St. Katherine’s Episcopal, but had transferred their membership to the Espiscopal Church in New Port Richey, FL before their deaths. Mildred Hawley is a member of the Calvary Baptist Church in Webberville. May the Bement family always be found faithfully serving the Lord.

The MSGC is a constantly evolving database. Not all the data that has been collected by volunteers has been sorted and entered. Not every building has been completely documented.

All images in the Index are either born-digital photographs of windows or buildings or are scans of slides, prints, or other published sources. These images have been provided by volunteers and the quality of the material varies widely.

If you have any questions, additions or corrections, or think you can provide better images and are willing to share them, please contact donald20@msu.edu
