==History==
The first Methodist services in the village of Dixboro were performed in 1828.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher = Dixboro United Methodist Church )〕 For the next 30 years, services were performed sporadically by circuit riders. Finally, in 1857, a group of Dixboro citizens met, elected a Board of Trustees, and authorized the building of a church for a price not to exceed $2500.〔 The Board hired Ypsilanti, Michigan architect Abraham Cooper to design the church and Saline builder E. W. Ford to construct it.〔 The building was completed in 1858, for a total cost of $2241.〔
In 1920, a basement was dug underneath the church and a furnace installed.〔 In 1950-51, a wing was added and the cupola was shortened.〔 In 1969, a second wing was added.〔 Finally, in 1997-98, the structure was completely renovated, and the cupola was restored to its original height.〔 The church is still used for weekly services.
