We want you to become part of the fun and fellowship of Worthington United Methodist Church (WUMC).
It all starts with a visit. Join us any Sunday at a worship service that feels right to you. Come as you are. You don’t have to dress a certain way, or claim prescribed beliefs. You simply need to come and connect with God in an open, accepting and supportive environment.
We currently offer two worship services (9 & 10 am). The 9 am service will be inside the Potter Chapel. The 10 am service will be inside in the Sanctuary and livestreamed on our YouTube page.
