The town of London was laid out (by Patrick McClene) in 1811. Two years later in 1813, the first church to be built in the town was established as the Methodist Church.

Up to that point, worship was held in private homes. The church was erected on the southwest corner lot of East Fifth & North Walnut. Worship was held at this location from 1818 to 1840.

The second location was a framed building located on the southwest corner of Second St. and South West Oak St. Worship was held at that location from 1840 to 1860.

The next building was a brick building erected on the same lot. The cost was $7,500. During the years 1862 to 1863, a new brick parsonage was built south of the church. In 1866 Mrs. Elizabeth Chrisman gave $7000 for a chapel addition to the rear of the church. This chapel still stands on West Second St.

In 1893 a vote of the congregation to build a new church on North Main Street at East Fourth passed by one vote. One of the houses was moved off the lot to Elm Street for the parsonage. The present parsonage was built in 1915.

In 1963 our educational wing of nine rooms was added.
