Mt. Vernon Methodist Church is a historic Methodist church in Maces Spring, Virginia, United States. It was built about 1895 and is a one-story, rectangular frame structure with gable roof and simple wooden steeple. The church is most notable for its association with the Carter Family, a traditional American Country music group that recorded between 1927 and 1956. Behind the church is the cemetery containing the graves of Alvin Pleasant "A.P." Delaney Carter (1891–1960) and his wife Sara Dougherty Carter (1898–1979).{{cite web|url=http://www.dhr.virginia.gov/registers/Counties/Scott/084-0013_Mount_Vernon_United_Methodist_Church_1985_Final_Nomination.pdf|title=National Register of Historic Places Inventory/Nomination: Mt.
