In 1836, James Dauthit and William Durham gave one acre of land "for the purpose of building a meeting-house." This 30' by 40' building had no windows and no heat. The meeting-house was remodeled in 1876 after the congregation bought 2 3/4 acres of land from Mr. Bob Rodgers. A 40' by 70' building, which is part of the present church was constructed in 1890-91. The building had two front doors, one for the men and one for the women to enter. The Woman's Missionary Society was organized in 1890. The official Board (now the administrative board) was organized in 1949, and the Wesleyan Service Guild was organized in 1954. The Methodist Men of Bethesda was organized in 1956. The two-story annex to house Sunday school rooms was added to the rear of the church in 1929. In 1965, six new classrooms were built making a total of 12. In 1948, the present church building was remodeled. In 1953, Misses Ida and Mamie Elrod gave two acres of land to build the first parsonage on Piedmont Highway. In 1972, a new parsonage was built in the Ponderosa Development off Highway 81. The Elliott Hall was built in 1956. In 1966, Bethesda Methodist Church was awarded a certificate by the S.C. Conference as The Church of the Year in the Anderson District. In 1973, a new 1 1/2 acre asphalt parking lot was given to the church by Cely Brothers in memory of Mr. and Mrs. Wallace Cely. In 1977, the church sanctuary was remodeled at a price of $25,000. Old stained glass windows were replaced, the narthex was built, and walls painted, etc. In 1982, the church purchased four acres of land for the purpose of building the Cely Family Life Center. Charles Cely gave two joining acres and Cely Bros. plus Marion Tucker (a sister) gave 1.20 acres of land which made a total of 7.20 acres. A service of consecration of the Cely Family Life Center was observed on Feb. 6, 1983. Bishop Roy Clark and District Superintendent James Merchant were honored guest at this occasion.
