The Wyandot Mission Church is an early 19th century Methodist church in Upper Sandusky, Ohio. Its interior contains dark, log pews and portraits of the missionary John Stewart and his Wyandot converts. The church is surrounded by trees and a cemetery and is often described as peaceful.

After joining Stewart among the Wyandots, Reverend James B. Finley directed the construction of the church. He built it of blue limestone. The Wyandots used the church until their removal to Kansas in 1843. That year, they met there and deeded its land to the Methodist Episcopal Church. The site was abandoned within multiple years and was only restored by Methodists in 1888. Ongoing summer services began in 1970, and the church was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1976.
