A brief history of the Painesville Church of the Brethren

On November 20, 1954, the district had the inspiring experience of laying the cornerstone for the chapel. During the winter months the parsonage-chapel was completed. In April of 1955 Arthur H. Hess was secured to be the first pastor.  Public worship began on June 23, 1955.

In the fall of 1959 the church voted to proceed with the construction of an educational wing. After eight months of planning and labor the building was completed and dedicated on June 26, 1960.  

Our church served the working families in our community by housing the Coleridge School and Daycare for over 40 years. The Coleridge School has been a shining light and great service to our community, but has sadly had to close its doors due to low enrollment on August 27, 2021.

Today, our Church is home to a beautiful sanctuary with balcony, pastoral offices, a library, classrooms, kitchen, a fellowship hall, outdoor pavilion, and a parsonage.
