House Joint Resolution 1392, sponsored by Hulsey, recognizes Cross United Methodist Church as it celebrates its 200th anniversary. The resolution highlights the significant role that churches play in shaping society and acknowledges the enduring impact of Cross United Methodist Church on its community since its establishment in 1824 in Sullivan County. The church has a rich history, including its initial meetings in the Snodgrass School Building, the challenges faced during its early years, and the eventual construction of its current building in 1920, which has served as a foundation for faith and outreach.

The resolution expresses gratitude to the congregation and its leaders for their dedication and service over the past two centuries, emphasizing the church's commitment to Christian beliefs and community support. It concludes by celebrating the church's bicentennial and wishing its members continued success and happiness in their mission. An appropriate copy of the resolution will be prepared for presentation, omitting the final clause upon request.
