Year round, we invite you to worship with us Sunday mornings at 10:15 AM.

There will be special music from our Choir and individuals throughout the year.

Our church is air conditioned and wheelchair accessible.

Communion is celebrated on the first Sunday of the month. In keeping with United Methodist tradition, "all who intend to lead a Christian life, together with their children, are invited to receive the bread and cup." That is, anyone of any age who desires to commune with God is invited to receive communion.

Sunday School is offered for all ages from 9:00 – 10:00 am from September through May.
