The First Christian Church of Wills Point was founded in 1882. The congregation first met in the Presbyterian Church, and a Cotton Gin pond was used for baptisms. A church building was erected in 1886, and in 1891 a baptistry was added. The first in town, it was offered for use by other area churches. During remodeling in the 1920's a belfry was removed and the beautiful stained glass windows were installed. A parsonage on Pecan Street was bought in the 1920's. A succession of ministers have served here, and this congregation has been instrumental in the training of many student pastors from Texas Christian University. The church has played an active part in many community activities. Texas Sesquicentennial 1836-1986.
