Green Level Christian Church began in the year 1876, when one of the eldest deacons donated three acres of land to build a new church. The white-framed building was constructed under the ministry of Rev. Alex Hazel. No further records about the church could be found until January 7, 1945, when Rev. Holland was the pastor of a congregation of 75 members. At that time, Green Level became affiliated with the Lincoln Christian Conference. Church meetings were held monthly on the Tuesday night before the first Sunday in August. Revival services began the first Sunday in August, Choir Anniversary on the first Sunday in October, Women’s Day on the third Sunday in October, Usher Board Anniversary in November, and Homecoming was celebrated on the first Sunday in May. 

​

In August 1947, Rev. Holland was dismissed, and two years later, the church called Rev. Walter Howard as pastor. That began a period of change and growth under his leadership for nearly 30 years. In 1951, Rev. Howard led the construction of a new church building. There were 70 members on the rolls. Over nearly the next decade and a half, church membership increased more than 60 percent, growing to 76 in 1956 and 113 in 1964. Over the years, Green Level Christian Church maintained its affiliation with the Lincoln Christian Conference. In  January 1962, the Deacon Board decided to explore joining the United Church of Christ denomination. Five years later at its November church meeting, members voted to become Green Level United Church of Christ. In 1978, Rev. Delbert Blackwell became pastor of the church. There are no records to explain the transition from Rev. Howard to Rev. Blackwell. In August 1979, members voted to build a fellowship hall and rooms for Sunday School classes.
