The history of the church began in 1945 when tl]e home of Mr. and Mrs. Ness was opened to an interested group of persons to start Sunday School Bible instruction. At that time there was no other church in Wonder Lake. The venture was rather slow to grow but is was not too long before the Rev. F. W. Anderson was contacted to sierve the community at the Gospel center, as it was then called. After residing at /the Lake and serving the community and church for seven years, Rev. Anderson was forced to retire as pastor because of a very urgent eye operation. At this time, July 1, 1955, Rev.. Richard N. Wright was called to be the pastor. The crowded condition of the church building was very evident and on many occasions it was necessary to rent larger accommodations to conduct special services. Since Rev. Wright has been serving the church the attendance has continued to grow until remodeling of the building was demanding. Action started with the purchase of a parsonage in April, 1957. The Nelson home on Mohawk Drive, Indian Ridge, was dedicated as a parsonage in ceremonies conducted July 7, 1957.
