Welcome to Central United Methodist

THIS WEBSITE IS UNDER CONSTRUCTION. PARDON THE MESS.

Welcome! Since our Church website has shown up on your computer, maybe we should say Welcome. We invite you to spend some time with us. Look around and learn about the ministry and mission at Central United Methodist Church. Most people have their own ideas about what a church is. We believe it means to "Follow Jesus", "Make Disciples", and "Transform the World."

A church is also being part of a welcoming, open and honest congregation living in the image of Jesus Christ. We look forward to sharing with you who we are and what we have to offer. We hope you will be informed and inspired by what you find here. We want every click you make to be a handshake, an adventure, an open door, a step together. Thanks for welcoming us into your life.

What can you do to reach out and touch other people’s lives this Christmas season?

Why not send a Christmas card or make a visit to one of these.
