Meier Settlement Methodist Church. Founded in 1887 by members of the Methodist Congregation in nearby Perry, this church first was known as the Zion Society of the Methodist Episcopal Church. Construction of a sanctuary began on March 5, 1887. With a membership made up of German immigrants, the congregation conducted all worship services in German until 1922. The church building was used as a public schoolhouse for a time, with the Pastors serving as teachers. In 1915 the name was changed to Meier Settlement Methodist Church. It continues to serve the community. #3320
