Sundays at CUMC

Each Sunday we gather to worship, hear from God's Word, and pray together. We welcome many guests just like you to our worship services, both in-person and online. We have 3 in-person services at 8:00am (Traditional), 9:45am (Contemporary), and 11:15am (Relaxed Traditional). The 8:00 & 9:45am services are also streamed online live for web viewers here. Stop by our Welcome Desk (Info Central) where friendly people will be available to answer any questions or help you get connected.

If you're in need of prayer, our prayer team is available in the Worship Center after every service.

We have no expectations. You will see people in suits/dresses, jeans & t-shirts and everything in-between on Sunday mornings, according to individual preference. Come as you are, be comfortable, and know you will be welcomed and accepted.

What are the options for young kids?

Nursery care/early Sunday School is available for infant-PreK at all services 8, 9:45, & 11:15am. During their time in the nursery, kids will be shown God's love through stories, fun activities, crafts, snacks, and play. The nursery staff follow weekly lesson plans that follow each story in the Bible. Kids will be cared for by our childcare workers along with volunteers that provide extra support each Sunday morning. All adults who care for and teach our kids have completed and passed Safe Sanctuaries background clearance. You will find the nursery to the left of the Worship Center. 
Worship bags are available for kids at all services. The bags (filled with fun activities for kids) are available inside the doors of the Worship Center for use during the worship services.
Kids Worship is available for kids (K-5th grade) during the 9:45 & 11:15am services in the Kids Room. We ask parents to check in their kid(s) at our Check-In Area (located next to the Cafe), then the kids will have their worship experience in the Kids Room. We use age appropriate, highly engaging and high tech learning curriculum as we learn to Live Like Jesus together in a safe environment. The Kids Room is located to the right of the Worship Center.
