The Madison Union Chapel, west of Wakarusa, Indiana, was built in 1906. Isaiah W. Royer spoke at the dedication service of this building used by multiple denominations.

The Indiana-Michigan Mennonite Conference held services at the Chapel until 1936. Henry Weldy (1862-1934) appeared to be the last minister to preach there regularly, every two weeks on Sunday evenings.

Membership records were never maintained here, but it was listed in the Mennonite Yearbook in the 1920s.
