There are but two churches in the township. The Methodist Episcopal Church at Deerfield is built upon ground donated to the society by William Heaton in 1827. The trustees of the society, at the time of the execution of the deed of gift by William and Rachel Heaton, were William Worley, William Vannote, George Wager, George Foglesong, James Clark, Michael Banon, Brice Worley, John Shephard and Ephraim Ludlum. The present membership is about one hundred.

Fellowship Christian Church was built about 1828. Among the early members were Ann Spencer, Rebecca Sargeant, Sarah Fox, wife of David Fox, Andrew and Catherine Lytle, William and Mary Bonnell, John and Mary Ann Covert. The churchyard is a burying-ground, the first interments being made in it about the time of the erection of the church.
