Pioneer Elyria Churches Shape Early Community Faith
Religion dominated Elyria's early settlers with log cabins serving as home school and church. In 1824 Presbyterians and Methodists formed their churches. Presbyterians built a stone church by 1848, while Methodists moved from a cabin to a brick meetinghouse. The First Baptist Church arose in 1833 with a brick meeting house funded by local donors.
