Religion

Residents of the township have consisted primarily of Christians of the Protestant tradition since the time of the township's founding. Currently there is one church in Prairie Green Township, the Prairie Green Church of Christ. Established in 1872 as the Hope Congregation of the Disciples of Christ, it located in Prairie Green Township shortly thereafter. Since 1957, the church has been located in Greer. An undenominational body, the church is identified with the Christian Churches and Churches of Christ and currently has approximately 50 active members and adherents.

The United Methodist (formerly Methodist Episcopal) denomination has also had a strong presence within the township since the 1800s. The Pleasant Hill Methodist Church was once an active congregation in the Northeast part of the township, but closed in the early 1960s. At that time the majority of members transferred to the Wellington Methodist Church (now Wellington United Methodist Church) in Lovejoy Township.
