dc.descriptionIn the 1880�s, there were six religious communities established among the inhabitants of the geographic area which makes up the Spring Lake we know today. �Como� and St. Andrew Methodist represented the year round community protestant congregations, The first church structure was the meeting house of the First Methodist Church of Sea Plain, (Como) built in 1872 by a congregation organized as an independent local church in 1870. Through the years, this congregation was known as the �First Methodist Church of Lake Como�, and eventually left the original church building to merge with other Methodist congregations and became St. Andrew�s United Methodist Church in Spring Lake. In 1887, construction began on the present Methodist church at the corner of Fourth and West Lake Avenues. Two lots were donated by John Lucas, a member of the Board of Trustees. The building was completed and dedicated in August, 1888. It is a fine example of Queen Anne style with Gothic Revival influences. The exterior features wood panels of inset, rounded, and saw-cut shingles, set off by boards of a contrasting color. In 1912, a bell tower was constructed on the northeast corner of the church
