Churches on Jekyll and Nearby

Three churches sit along side Riverview Drive by the Jekyll Airport, but there are five congregations that hold services in these buildings. The United Methodist Church shares its facilities with St. Richard Episcopal Mission, and the St. Francis Xavier Catholic Church. A Southern Baptist Church and a Presbyterian Church are just down the street.

For those of other faiths, Brunswick and St. Simons Island offer many houses of worship. A few of these are listed here, but check the Yellow Pages of the telephone directory for a great many more.

One church on Jekyll Island that does not have regular Sunday services is Faith Chapel in the Island's Historic District. The chapel was built by members of the old millionaires' club in 1904. Its stain glass windows and grotesques on the rafters inside are must sees for anyone visiting the Island. The Chapel is open on most days from 2 to 4 pm. (If a wedding or wedding rehearsal is scheduled, the Chapel will not be open.) The other churches on the Island, along with Friends of Historic Jekyll Island, provide volunteers to sit in the Chapel during visitors' hours.
