Baptism

Baptism is a meaningful and memorable occasion — a sacrament of our faith. We baptize by sprinkling Holy Water and making the sign of the cross on the forehead with anointing oil to invite the presence of the Holy Spirit. The United Methodist Church recognizes baptisms from other faiths and churches and therefore does not re-baptize people. For infant baptisms, United Methodist Women place a rose on the altar for you to take home after the service. Baptisms can be scheduled for either of our Sunday worship services and need to be coordinated with our pastors.

GriefShare®

Grief Support

2024 Session TBA

GriefShare is a welcoming, caring group of people who will walk alongside you through one of life’s most difficult experiences — you don’t have to go through the grieving process alone. If you’ve lost a spouse, child, family member or friend, you’ve probably found there are not many people who understand the deep hurt you feel.

This can be a confusing time of feeling isolated with questions about things you’ve never faced before.

GriefShare will help you face these challenges and move toward rebuilding.

Finding Hope

Wellness Center

Finding Hope Wellness Center exists to help individuals and communities discover resilience, healing, and hope on their mental health journey. We provide safe and confidential resources offering accessible, trauma-informed, holistic care. We intend to reduce the stigma of mental health so that, through community, people find hope and healing.
