Do I need a comma:
" In the 40s the church was built."
OR
"In the 40s, the church was built."
" In the 40s the church was built."
OR
"In the 40s, the church was built."

As given, the comma is optional. If you placed the first phrase at the end, it would not be proper.

The church was built in the 40's. No comma needed.
It is not wrong, but avoid this: 30 years ago, I came to the United States
Say: " I came to the United States 30 years ago.
Anonymous" In the 40s the church was built."Unless you have a special context, avoid construction with prepositional phrase in the beginning of the sentences.
