Faith United Methodist Church grew from the merger of two historically African-American Methodist congregations in Dickinson and League City. The first, Warren Chapel, was named for its founder, Richard H. Warren, who began the church in 1889 by preaching in the homes of Sophie Monroe and Wilimina Toussaint, after which regular worship services were held in the home of Shed Slaughter. In 1900, Warren was accepted as an ordained deacon in the Methodist Church, and the following year he was appointed minister of the Dickinson Circuit, which included La Marque, Hitchcock, Dickinson and League City. Warren Chapel's first church building was constructed in 1901 with lumber washed ashore after the 1900 storm, and Warren served as minister until 1904 as the congregation continued to build its membership. Winfield Chapel, founded in League City by Alex Winfield, Sr., received a donation of land about 1907 and built its first sanctuary there. A 1932 storm destroyed that building, and a new one was completed about 10 years later, while circuit riders held worship services for the small congregation. In December 1966, the district superintendent called a meeting to discuss uniting the two historic churches, and in June 1967 the merger of Warren Chapel and Winfield Chapel as Warren-Winfield Chapel became official. Two years later, the church moved to its present location and was consecrated as Faith United Methodist Church. With strength in its members, the church has developed significant programs of outreach, education and ministries.
