Bethel Methodist Church (Bantam, Ohio)

Bethel Methodist Church is a historic Methodist church building in rural Clermont County, Ohio, United States. Built in the 1810s under the leadership of one of Ohio's earliest Methodist preachers, it has survived the death of its congregation, and it remains in use for community activities. Together with its cemetery, the building continues to be used occasionally, and it has been named a historic site.
==History==
The pioneer minister at Bethel was New Jersey native John Collins, who migrated to the Northwest Territory in 1802; local legend asserts that he was the first Methodist Episcopal preacher in what has since become the Cincinnati metropolitan area,〔Owen, Lorrie K., ed. ''Dictionary of Ohio Historic Places''. Vol. 1. St. Clair Shores: Somerset, 1999, 138.〕 although Ohio's oldest Methodist church was formed in a preacher's house at Milford in 1797.〔(First Methodist Church ), Ohio Historical Society, 1967. Accessed 2014-02-10.〕 Collins started Methodist classes throughout much of southern Ohio, including Bantam, Chillicothe, Dayton, Hillsboro, and Lebanon. When the congregation at Bantam was founded in 1805, the members named it "Bethel" and built a log church building, but the original structure remained for only a short time; the present church building replaced it in 1818. Substantial changes were made in 1867, although the core of the 1818 structure still stands.〔 The congregation closed in 1968: when the Corps of Engineers bought large amounts of land to create East Fork State Park, all area residents were forced out, and no members remained to continue worshipping at Bethel. Today, the building is used just twice annually: a Memorial Day service is held in conjunction with an American Legion post, and a homecoming event each fall includes a service.〔Puckett, Jordan. "(Memorial Day Services To Be Held at the Old Bethel Methodist Church )", ''Clermont Sun'', 2013-05-17. Accessed 2014-02-10.〕
