The Sugar Town Circuit, located within the Opelousas District, appears to have been created by the Louisiana Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church South around 1872.

Churches identified include: Clear Creek, Dry Creek, Harmony, Hopewell, Liberty Grove, Mount Pisgah, New Hope, Oak Grove, Pine Island, Sugar Creek, Sugar Town, and Sweet Home.
