Our History
( 7 Articles )
The origin of the Chardon United Methodist Church is traced to a young woman’s 40 mile ride through the wilderness in 1818. Polly Benton made the trip on horseback to ask the Reverend Ezra Booth for his help in organizing a Methodist Church in Chardon. Her exact destination is lost to history. Reverend Booth took the names of those Methodists who were living and worshiping in Chardon to the Ohio Conference in Steubenville on August 7, 1818. Organization of the Methodist Society of Chardon was completed that Fall. There were 10 founding members.
Over the intervening years, the small congregation struggled, grew, and prospered to become the church as we know it today. The name of Polly Benton has been memorialized in the name of a woman’s group within the church – the Polly Benton Circle of the United Methodist Women.

Our Belief
( 4 Articles )
John Wesley and the early Methodists were particularly concerned about inviting people to experience God’s grace and to grow in their knowledge and love of God through disciplined Christian living. They placed primary emphasis on Christian living, on putting faith and love into action. This emphasis on what Wesley referred to as "practical divinity" has continued to be a hallmark of United Methodism today. We invite you to learn more about our rich theological heritage.
