The Methodist Episcopal church sent the first pastor to Panhandle in 1889, and in 1903, the Methodist Episcopal South was formed. On March 9, 1967 ground breaking for the third site of the Methodist church began and completed on January 21, 1968. The church was properly dedicated on Sunday, October 1, 1972; attended by Bishop Alsie H. Carleton, District Superintendent Dr. Clifford Trotter.
A Texas Historical Marker was dedicated in 1990, marking the one hundred years of service to the community and continues today.
