History

    The first Sunday School in Cache was organized by a Methodist, Samuel W, Banks, in the spring of 1903.

The attendance was small and met in the printing office of Johnnie T. Jamison. Mr. Banks served as Superintendent

until the spring of 1907. A brush arbor meeting was held and members became enthusiastic to build a church. A wood frame

structure sprang into existence with members and the Aid Society working hard.

Sunday afternoon, July 5, 1926, the church was struck by lightning and burned to the ground.

The few members were undaunted by so much misfortune and began building on the same land,

this time a nice concrete structure. The best looking building in town.Parsonage and second church building 1930
