History

A meeting held on February 24, 1869 begins the story of our church.  Built that year, on land donated by John Tuckey, at a cost under $1500, both Methodist and Lutheran congregations shared use of the church until 1947.  In 1949, the old church floor was raised and a basement put in, for Sunday School classes.  As the congregation grew, it was decide that a new church was needed.  In March of 1963, the first service was held in the present sanctuary.

 

 

 

In addition to our regular church services, we spread God's Word through Vacation Bible School, our Albion Fair building and the Harvest Home Supper which are some of our annual events.
