Plainfield Methodist Church

The Plainfield Methodist Protestant Church formally organized on June 7, 1863. The present church building, dedicated on January 27, 1907, replaced the first church, built in 1868, which burned when it was struck by lightning in 1906. In 1939 the congregation merged with the Methodist Episcopal Church, and in 1969 it joined with the Evangelical United Brethren to form the United Methodist Church.
