    A historic church in Selma will be closing its doors because of declining membership.

    At the annual meeting of the Alabama-West Florida Conference of the United Methodist Church on June 17, officials announced Memorial United Methodist Church on Broad Street in Selma will soon close.

    “These are things we do every year,” Head of the Alabama-West Florida Conference of the United Methodist Church Bishop David Graves said. “Every year we have churches that have lived their life cycle and there’s all kinds of reasons for it, and there’s always something kind of sad about that.”

    The effective date of the closure is June 30.
