The Jefferson Circuit was first mentioned in Church history in 1811. The Church at Jeffersontown was part of this circuit. Jeffersontown United Methodist Church, therefore, is one of the oldest Methodist churches in Kentucky. The first pastor assigned here was Charles Bondwell in 1811. Bishop Asbury wrote in his memoirs that he preached in Jeffersontown on October 20, 1812.
