From the moment you drive up the hill into our parking lot, you can just feel yourself becoming closer to God. Then, as you look at the church with its soaring roofline, your spirits are lifted higher as well. Our front doors with handles from top to bottom were designed so that any person -- young or old, tall or small, challenged or not - can pull open the door and enter in.

Your first glimpse into the Sanctuary reveals God's great outdoors as the towering panes of clear glass encourage you to revel in the seasonal changes, nature, and wildlife surrounding you. The visual centerpoint of the entire Sanctuary is straight ahead and at the very highest point of the entire structure -- the cross. With your mind and heart focused on God, one can truly worship.

The United Methodist Church of the Dunes Worship Commission's goal is to provide meaningful, thought-provoking, life-changing, and faith-growing services of Worship. From the moment you walk into the doors, you can "feel" the warmth and friendliness and the 'sense of being home' in God's House.

Our Sunday morning Worship Services are held in our beautiful open Sanctuary at 8:30am and 11:00am each Sunday. Between the two services we offer a time for fellowship and/or a time for learning. (see Education) There are other special services planned for other significant times, too, such as Ash Wednesday and Maundy Thursday (the Thursday before Resurrection Day) to name a few.

Our church has been blessed with many giving and talented people and worshippers are the recipients of beautiful 'worship' music of various styles. From Bach to contemporary Christian and from the very youngest on hand chimes, to the adults ringing handbells, there is something for everyone. From the wafting of pipe organ to the electronic keyboard and the raising of voices of young and not-so-young alike, God's name is praised above all! (see Music Ministry)

Our sermon messages are challenging and pertinent to today's world as the Bible and its relevance is. Applying God's Word and taking it home with us is life-changing and heart-stretching. Please see Sermon Topics for a list of upcoming Sunday morning messages. We also offer the celebration of Communion on the first Sunday of each month at both services. The United Methodist Church offers open communion to all those who hold Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior.

We look forward to seeing you at our Worship Services!
