Little Creek Mennonite Church is located in Frankfort, Ohio, USA. The church originated as a colonization church plant of the Calvary Bible Fellowship. Eight families were chosen by lot on 2 October 2002 to be part of the move. On 24 November 2002 David Schwartz was ordained as bishop to lead the group.

Most of the families moved between June and December 2003. The first service was held in the David Miller home on 7 December 2003. A property was purchased on Little Creek Road for building a church and school.

In 2018 the church had 37 members and was a member of the Mennonite Christian Fellowship. The ministerial team included Bishop David Schwartz and Minister Tim Miller.
