About Us
The first Methodist meetings in Fairfield were led by circuit rider, Jesse Herbert in 1840. The first church was built in 1848 on the Southeast corner of B and Washington streets.
The current structure at 201 North Court Street was dedicated April 13, 1924 after a congregational split that lasted seven years. Explore the captivating journey of Methodism in Fairfield and discover the profound impact it has had on our community.
