This Coke bottle marks the Bicentennial of the birth of American Methodism (1784-1984). It was the winter of 1784 when 60 preachers arrived at the Lovely Lane Meeting House in Baltimore, Maryland. Francis Asbury and Thomas Coke led this historic conference which saw the formation of the Methodist Episcopal Church. Asbury records in his journal, “We were in great haste, and did much business in a little time.” It was here that American Methodists affirmed their independence. The Coca-Cola Company have a long history of producing anniversary labels. But did you know that the founder of the Coca-Cola company was a Methodist? American business tycoon and philanthropist, Asa Candler of Carroll County, Georgia attended Atlanta First United Methodist Church with his family.
