==Organic history==
Ninety Universalists organized their church in May 1839, holding their first worship services and business meetings in the Baptist church and the local schoolhouse;〔''(History of Medina County and Ohio )''. Chicago: Baskin and Battey, 1881, 604.〕 they were the second Universalist church organized anywhere in Ohio.〔Owen, Lorrie K., ed. ''Dictionary of Ohio Historic Places''. Vol. 2. St. Clair Shores: Somerset, 1999, 984.〕 In 1847, they paid $60 to purchase a piece of land on the public square in Westfield Center; one year later, the building operations began, and the dedication occurred on 16 June 1849. Comparatively few interpersonal difficulties appear in the church records; a schism occurred in 1853, but few members left, and the congregation was little affected.〔 The original building remains in use, although expanded.〔 Today, the congregation is a member of the Unitarian Universalist Association.〔(What Do Unitarian Universalists Believe? ), First Universalist Church of Westfield Center, n.d.
