Our History
Chartered in 1880, we have been the body of Christ in Driftwood, Texas for over 140 years.
Early Methodist Church services in Driftwood were held in the Reaves School by the Rev. John Alexander Garrison (1849-1933), who served other small Hays County communities as well. The congregation began meeting here in 1884 after this small frame sanctuary was completed. When the local Baptist Church building was destroyed in 1911, the Methodists shared this structure with the Baptists for 80 years. Descendants of pioneer church members still worship at the Driftwood Church.

Who We Are
Driftwood Community Church is a community of Christians from all over the Hill Country including Wimberly, Dripping Springs, Austin, Buda, Kyle and of course, Driftwood.
We gather weekly for fellowship, worship, and scripture where we learn to follow Jesus through lives of love, mercy and hope, so that we may better serve those in the communities and landscapes we call home.
