Because of the faithful and generous service of so many, we offer high quality worship each week; faith formation experiences for all ages such as K-5 KIDS@PUMC, youth ministries, and adult learning classes and small groups; welcoming ministries such as greeters, ushers, and Sunday morning coffee; quality communication and administrative support; and so much more. We thank God for all the ways faith is lived out through this ministry. Be inspired to share your gifts so that others can have a full experience of the love and grace of God in Jesus Christ.

We love and serve together because we are one in Christ. Amen!
