History
History
MurphyHarpst has a rich tradition of caring for children that grew from two homes founded more than 70 years ago
In 1914 Ethel Harpst was assigned by the Womens Home Mission Society of the Methodist Church to teach children conduct worship and care for the sick in rural Georgia In 1924 the society established the Ethel Harpst Center located on 160 wooded acres in Cedartown Georgia to support her work
Several years later in 1931 Sarah D Murphy a Spelman College student born to former slaves established a school at the edge of Cedartown for poor AfricanAmerican children Then in response to the plight of so many of her students abandoned by their parents Sarah transformed her school into an orphanage After her death in 1961 the national Womens Division of the Methodist Church took over the Sarah Murphy home
In 1984 the two homes merged into MurphyHarpst Childrens Centers MurphyHarpst continues the visions of Sarah Murphy and Ethel Harpst as a place where children with no alternatives are welcomed and given hope
