    Itinerant preachers often met with local Methodists in early days of settlement. Organized on May 25, 1868, by the Rev. Andrew Davis, this is one of the oldest churches in North Texas. Services were held in Masonic Hall until a church building was erected in 1874. This had separate entrances and seating for men and women, in the Victorian manner. After a new church was constructed in 1911, the original building was used as a Sunday School annex, but was later razed. The present sanctuary, erected in 1957, stands on site of the original church.
