On August 6,1892, Rev. Jacob and Hannah Hinshaw founded the Okoboji Monthly Meeting of Friends, meeting in the Okoboji school house, as an organizational meeting by a  committee of Greenville Quarterly Meeting. They met in Spencer for the first 3 years. On November 7, 1895 the building committee reported that the new Church was complete and also paid for; the cost being something over one thousand dollars. In February of 1899 a committee was appointed to build a parsonage. Lumber was purchased for $313.00 in March of that year, and in August a tract of land was purchased where the present Church is today. The statistical record of 1904 showed 84 members, down 27 from the previous year. May 5, 1910 was the first mention of changing the name  from Okoboji to Arnolds Park as Arnolds Park had become incorporated in 1897. As the years go by we have gained and lost but the spirit of the Church still exists as a Bible believing Church dedicated to the work of the Lord.
