The first Shreve Methodist Church was built in 1856 while, [[Shreve, Ohio|Shreve]] was still called [[Clinton Station]]. At this time the Millbrook Class united with Shreve and A. Moffitt and N. Worden were pastors. The church was on the Nashville circuit until 1867, and in 1869 the Shreve circuit consisting of Shreve, Newkirk, and Bigelow Churches was formed under Rev. O. Webster. In 1871 the second church was built during his pastorate. Structural problems lead to the dismantling of this building and the beginning of the present building on the same site, now 430 North Main Street, on July 15th, 1905. This church was dedicated in February 1906, with C. Kennedy as pastor. In June 1956, ground was broken for a new addition containing additional Sunday School rooms and expanded kitchen facilities. This was completed in February 1957, while Fred Schiltz was pastor. In 1962, with Arthur Sperry as pastor, a second story containing more classrooms was added to this addition. In October 1974, Newkirk Church was dismantled and its members transferred to Shreve. Maple Grove Church merged in 1981. Current church membership stands at 440.
