The Acton Community Presbyterian Church began as the Union Moral and Religious Association of Acton, whose first meeting was held on April 28, 1888. Its first formal service took place on June 17, 1888, at the Little White School, built in 1881, with Pastor John Robbins called out of retirement to officiate. In 1890, the congregation helped replace the Little White School with the red-brick Soledad School, a half school half church, which later became a private home at the west end of Cory Ave. The old church-school bell was moved to Acton Elementary School at 32248 Crown Valley Road. In 1916, the congregation became known as Acton Community Presbyterian Church, joining the Presbyterian Church (USA). On June 15, 1922, Richard E. Nickel notified the Church Board of Trustees of his gift of this site for a new church building and parsonage, prompting a fundraising program and the start of the project. The church was crafted using California redwood, with ceilings of tongue and groove cedar planks, and its oak pulpit was handcrafted by a member of the Wilshire Presbyterian Church. The new church building was dedicated on June 8, 1924. In 1958, Hedgecock Hall was built south of the sanctuary using war surplus materials and named after Elder John Hedgecock.
