The Schoodic Circuit

The Schoodic Circuit is composed of the Gouldsboro United Methodist Church and Prospect Harbor United Methodist Church.

The Gouldsboro United Methodist Church is situated among blueberry fields on Old Route One, in a small neighborhood just north of U.S. Route 1, near the eastern terminus of Route 186.

The smaller of two churches in the Schoodic Circuit, the congregation has a history dating back to the 19th Century. The existing building was erected in 1884.It is a small, warm community in which to worship. Its Stitch and Serve Society contributes crafts and mittens for those in need.

The congregation has an earned public reputation throughout the area for its monthly bean suppers, prepared for and put on by practically all active parishioners; and for special lobster dinners put on for bus tours in the fall.

Current outside users of our facilities include Health Link - which has an active exercise program for seniors twice a week throughout the year.

The Prospect Harbor United Methodist Church is situated on Route 186 just next to the town municipal offices and fire station in the lovely seaside village of Prospect Harbor.  It celebrated its 100th Anniversary in 2004.

The church serves a younger and larger group of worshipers and is able to offer varied church activities for its adults and youth.

Activities serving the region that bring public recognition are its Annual Seacost Fair in July and its participation in the annual Winter Harbor Lobster Festival in August.
