In 1893, various local residents did not want to travel all the way to Tempe to attend church (a few miles away) so they set out to establish their own church (then called First Church). First Church was Mesa's only Methodist church until the early 1960s. Various local Methodist churches branched off from this one. The current building was built in 1955.
