The story
ORGANIZED IN THE LATE 1890s, BUT RELATIVELY INACTIVE UNTIL 1912, FLAT PRAIRIE CONGREGATIONAL METHODIST CHURCH WAS REORGANIZED BY REVEREND WADE EMMONS. THE FIRST CHURCH MEETING WAS HELD IN THE FLAT PRAIRIE SCHOOL ON THE FARM OF FLOYD MOORE. THE MEMBERSHIP GREW AND A CHURCH WAS BUILT IN 1929.
IN THE LATE 1950s, THE CHURCH MOVED AND BUILT A NEW STRUCTURE USING MATERIALS SALVAGED FROM THE ORIGINAL BUILDING. THE NEW CHURCH WAS DEDICATED ON OCTOBER 27, 1957. THE CHURCH HAS SERVED IN A SPIRITUAL AND COMMUNITY SERVICE CAPACITY FOR MANY YEARS WITH SOCIAL ACTIVITIES, SINGINGS, PIE SUPPERS AND BY PROVIDING A PLACE FOR YOUNG PASTORS TO GAIN EXPERIENCE.
