In 1974 the first building was constructed on our property and is known today as our "Youth Center". The first worship service was held on October 6, 1974 and attendance exceeded the capacity of the building. Our next building, Fellowship Hall was built in 1976, followed by our present Sanctuary in 1983.
In 1988 the property north of us was added giving us a parsonage on the campus and room to build our Education Building completed in 1991. The Chapel and Meeting Room facility was completed in 1998.
In 1999 we celebrated our 25 Anniversary and all our former Senior Pastors took part in the services and celebration.

What We Believe
As United Methodists, we have an obligation to bear a faithful Christian witness to Jesus Christ, the living reality at the center of the Church’s life and witness. To fulfill this obligation, we reflect critically on our biblical and theological inheritance, striving to express faithfully the witness we make in our own time.
Two considerations are central to this endeavor: the sources from which we derive our theological affirmations and the criteria by which we assess the adequacy of our understanding and witness.
Wesley believed that the living core of the Christian faith was revealed in Scripture, illumined by tradition, vivified in personal experience, and confirmed by reason.

History of the Church
On April 23, 1968, The United Methodist Church was created when Bishop Reuben H. Mueller, representing The Evangelical United Brethren Church, and Bishop Lloyd C. Wicke of The Methodist Church joined hands at the constituting General Conference in Dallas, Texas.
The Constitution
The organization of each unit in the church is carefully spelled out in the Book of Discipline. All members are at least acquainted with the local church. It includes those who have professed their belief in Christ, have been baptized, and have taken the vows of membership.
