The First United Methodist Church of Center was organized early in 1866, in a two story building shared by the Masonic Lodge using the second floor and on property deeded to the church by Judge E.G. Wheeler. In 1888, a building program for a new church was begun and culminated in 1892 in a new frame building located on the site of the present church. This building was remodeled in 1910. The present church building was erected in 1927 and Runnels Chapel was added to the church building in 1950. The historic cemetery behind the church dates back to 1861.
