Faith and fellowship continue to play a significant role in island life today. The earliest
inhabitants of Smith Island date back to the early 1600’s. A number of families now
living on the Island can be traced back to the first permanent settlers.

​Smith Island has a long history as a faith-based community with a church in each
village. Once Methodist, now non-denominational. Join us each Sunday and during the
summer for Camp, which started over 135 years ago. Visitors are always welcome!
