Arbutus Methodist Episcopal Sunday School was established in 1906 and began meeting in a blacksmith shop. A new building was erected on the corner of Maple Avenue at Shelbourne Road. The first worship service was held there on New Year's Day, 1961. A building addition to expand educational facilities was erected in 1983.
The church has several ministries, including computer training, study groups and music. The church also operates the Southwest Emergency Services, which provides food and money for families in urgent need.

I was given a 2 hour tour of their Learning Center (daycare facility) Thursday. WOW! I was extremely impressed with the structure of their programs and their level of security in the building. Their teachers were well certified, rooted and so friendly. The establishment was clean, organized and inviting! The kids looked very happy and were all well behaved. I almost couldn't get my son to leave after the tour. Very nice place. :)
