Church History (Submitted by Virginia Kay)
Faith Community United Methodist continues a long tradition
of faith that began with the first Methodist meetings in Xenia early in
the 19th century. When the Methodists and the Evangelical United Brethren
united in 1968 in Dallas, Texas, Xenia's First Church and Trinity Church
became United Methodist churches. Two years later, these historic
congregations joined together to form "Faith Community," June 12, 1970. In
September, 1972, the new church building at 100 Country Club Dr. was
constructed to the Glory of God. The congregation continues the tradition
of Methodism born here almost two centuries ago
