UNION â The former Union United Methodist Church building complex no longer is in peril.
A local nonprofit, the Friends of the Historic Union Community Hall, purchased the Union United Methodist Church property and its three buildings from the Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference of the United Methodist Church. The purchase, finalized on Wednesday, Feb. 24, was made with $25,000 raised by the Friends of the Historic Union Community Hall.
The Oregon-Idaho Conference of the United Methodist Church assumed ownership of the property in 2019 after the church closed because of declining membership. The Oregon-Idaho Conference oversees all Methodist churches in Oregon and Southern Idaho.
The conference next put the church building, its fellowship hall and parsonage up for sale. The complex, now named the Historic Union Community Hall, has been closed for at least a year.
