St. John's Hain's was established on land donated by George and Veronica Hain. A log building was the first church constructed about 1735. No official date could be obtained for the origin of the congregation which is estimated between 1725 and 1739. 1735 is the date placed on the log church replica constructed in 1916 at the site of the original structure. It's also the date on the church sign.
There are three History of St. John's Hain's Reformed Church books. 1916, 1935 and 1970 editions. A tombstone listing is provided in the 1935 and 1970 editions. In addition, Sandstones of Berks County, part 7, found at the Berks County Genealogical Society, lists transcriptions of the red sandstones from 1988/1992.
The cemetery surrounding the church is the final resting place for 58 Revolutionary War soldiers. Throughout the cemetery, there are 89 Civil War soldiers.
