Readfield United Methodist Church is a congregation housed in two historic church buildings on the east and west hills of Readfield, Maine. Located about 15 minutes west of the state capitol, Augusta, Readfield once had four Methodist communities, each close to a neighborhood school. In 1960, under the leadership of the Rev. Alice Hart, the four bodies of faith become one. In the 1990s, a fifth congregation, the Mount Vernon United Methodist Church, joined the merged congregation. (The beautiful Mount Vernon church building at the edge of the lake in the heart of Mount Vernon village, now houses an active community center with summer Saturday Coffees and special events).
