Clarence Center Mennonite Church (General Conference Mennonite Church [GCM]), now extinct, was formed in 1875 as a schism from the Clarence Center Mennonite Church congregation when the minister Jacob Krehbiel, Jr. withdrew with about a dozen families. The group affiliated with the GCM body ca. 1880, and the Middle District Conference in 1889. The highest membership was 45 in 1896 but by 1917, when Krehbiel retired, it was only 18. The church was then disbanded.
