The first sermon was preached at the home of Daniel Dye, a Baptist minister. The Baptists built the first church, known as the Unity Baptist Church. The second church was organized in Antioch and was named the Christian Church. Ministers of the Christian Church preached for many years before any church buildings were erected. There is a church of this denomination on the East side of Perry Township, near Eddy's Mill. The Christian Church at Antioch is a frame building about 30 feet by 40 feet in size with a membership of 200 people. There were two M.E. churches in Perry Township in 1880. In 1881, Reverend J.A. Wright was the pastor for the M.E. Church with a membership of 116 persons.
William Jarvis organized Antioch in 1837.
