The bible was donated to FUMC in 1888 by George Alfred Harrison. Harrison volunteered for the 90th NY Infantry (Union army) when he was less than 14 years old and served more than four years. He settled in Boerne and for 16 years was an agent for the San Antonio Daily Express News in Boerne and Kerrville. FUMC will celebrate its 150th anniversary in 2025. Courtesy photo
