The History of the Georgetown Evangelical Free Church

Swedish immigrate settlers in Williamson County met together in homes for worship services as early as 1884. In 1891 this congregation was organized in the home of Mr. and Mrs. Sven Peterson by 21 charter members, known as Brushy Evangelical Free Church. The congregation built a sanctuary in 1892 on land southeast of Georgetown donated by C. J. Gustafson. This Georgetown site was acquired in 1960, and a new sanctuary was dedicated in 1963. This church has been part of Williamson County history for nearly a century. (1988)
