Annawan is blessed With three area United Methodist Churches. They are the Community United Methodist Church in Annawan, Fairview United Methodist Church located three miles south of Annawan,and the Hooppole Zion United Methodist Church located ten miles north of Annawan in Hooppole, Illinois.
To better serve our congregations,in 2010 the Greater Annawan Parish was created. All three churches maintain their own building but we share a pastor. On Sundays, we have a combined service at one of the churches in the parish. This service rotates to a different church in the parish the next Sunday and to the third church the next Sunday. We would love to have you join us for worship!
Sunday Worship time is always at 9 a.m.
The scheduled place of worship can be found on our Facebook page: Greater Annawan Parish .
The Greater Annawan Parish offers in addition to Sunday worship: a weekly after
school program during the school year. Both adult and youth Sunday School classes
are offered. There is also a Vacation Bible School during the summer.
All three churches are Handicap Accessible.
Annawan Community United Methodist Church
This church started in a schoolhouse in Annawan in 1853. It
eventually progressed to three protestant denominations and then
to their union in 1917. The present building was built in 1924
at a cost of $20,000. The church was named the Annawan Community
Church and was dedicated on December 7, 1924. On December 8,
1974 the church celebrated its 50th anniversary with Dr. Simms,
the assistant to the Bishop, rededicating the church building.

Fairview United Methodist Church
Fairview Church is located three miles south of Annawan. The
merger of the Evangelical and United Brethren Churches was in
1953, thus the name was changed to Fairview Evangelical United
Brethren Church. In 1956 a new brick building was built west of
the church. Another name change occurred in 1968 when the EUB
Church and the Methodist merged, and the church became the
Fairview United Methodist Church. Many changes have been made to
the church such as the north entrance being removed, the
sanctuary was reversed from north to south and a new entrance
was placed on the west with a carport.
