In 1883, Christian Kurtz deeded a plot of land South Chestnut Street to build a new meeting house for the Church of the United Brethren in Christ. When the United Brethren and Methodist congregations merged in 1968 to form the United Methodist Church, the congregation became defunct. Today, both the building and the cemetery are maintained by the Elverson Methodist Cemetery Association.


Several different churches have started out in this building. The Honey Brook Mennonites and Twin Valley Bible Chapel met there until their congregations built their own houses of worship. The Grace Full Gospel Church worshipped there until they purchased a building in the Welsh Mountains. Elverson's Community Free Church used it as an educational building, the congregation meeting in the Elverson Fire Hall, until their new church was built on Brick Lane.


Today, the Warwick Bible Church occupies the church.
