Each year we recognize the oldest man and woman in attendance and pin a corsage on them.
(l) Mabel Smith Anderson of Thomasville was the "youngest at heart" woman present.
(r) John Wilkerson of Grove Hill was the "youngest at heart" man present.
Those regulars who can’t make the homecoming due to infirmity or illness or who have died are remembered by name for prayer.

Art Green, a faithful homecomer, says, "On a bright May Sunday morning with blue sky filled with puffy white clouds, the church bell can be heard for miles calling the faithful to worship and fellowship. It is ringing as it has for many years to announce the Lower Peach Tree United Methodist Church Annual Homecoming service, a special gathering time for the faithful. It calls Lower Peach Tree folk from as far as California and all over the United States."
We are thankful for all who travel here to spend time with friends and relatives. We are very proud of our young visitors as well. Although they do not receive corsages, they do like to participate in the worship service and the informal time - and their contributions are most welcome. This year two young homecomers were successful in ringing the church bell. And a young lady sang "This is My Father's World."
