General Info:
We gather every Sunday morning at 10: 00 am for worship and observe Communion on the first Sunday of each month. Our Chancel Choir and Handbell Choir lead us as we sing with joy to the Lord. On Sunday morning we offer educational opportunities for all ages. During Worship, nursery is provided for infants and toddlers. Older children participate in the opening of worship, then attend age appropriate classes, where they worship, pray, learn Bible stories, and enact dramas. Our mission to "learn, celebrate and share Christ's love" continues after Sunday morning. We host monthly men and women's Bible studies. Our drama group called "The UMC Players" performs Bible based plays in worship. Members participate in hands-on community service projects during the year, including a summer "tailgate" sale to raise camp scholarships, a fall holiday bazaar to benefit local charities, a one-day home repair project, ringing bells for the salvation army Christmas kettle collection, sponsoring a child in Uganda, conducting food drives for the Food Bank.
