In 1792, a group of Presbyterians established a church near Mount Bethel's current location.
[2] It was first called the Mountain Church in 1808 and soon became the center of Presbyterian work in Hampshire County under the auspices of the Reverend John Lyle.
The Reverend James Black reorganized the congregation in 1812 and it was renamed Mount Bethel.
The present church, built of logs in 1837, is the oldest house of worship in Hampshire County.
