Worship Services
Home »At MUMC, we seek to glorify God through our worship, and to encounter God through study of the Word.
We gather each week to pray, sing, remember, and learn together, that through our worship we might come face to face with the Divine. We rejoice and let our hearts be heard so that others may feel the calling too.
Across our three services, our worship is vibrant and authentic because of the gifts that God’s people bring to offer each Sunday, from an uplifted song to the sharing of a prayer or a dramatic reading of scripture.
We are called to worship God with all our hearts, and here at MUMC we would invite you to join us to worship, and to get involved in our music, media, and worship ministries, which are open to all!
Worship Times
Main Sanctuary – 8:30am
Held in the Sanctuary, our traditional service cherishes pews, pulpits, choir lofts, robes for pastors and choirs, daylight streaming through the stained glass and the deep resonant sound of a pipe organ. Voices lifting high in praise of God, an energetic congregation joining in hymns, passionate preaching, and a community gathering to receive the sacraments of Holy Baptism and Holy Communion—these make up the texture and taste of the traditional worship service.
We move forward with pipes and processionals that help to create an energetic, passionate, uplifting, and spirit-filled worship experience that connects individuals to friends in love, to a cause greater than themselves, and to the kind of worship that fills an empty soul and charges their spiritual batteries for the week ahead.
Main Sanctuary – 11:00am
Located in the Sanctuary, this service joins together the people of God in all their diversity, under one roof and in one service, to glorify God through the offering up of corporate praise. Throughout this service, we artful weave together varying musical styles and other elements into a seamless tapestry which honors the Lord without alienating any particular group.
May we seek to please the Lord with our worship so that He might be honored not only by our outward expressions but also by the attitudes of hearts. May our worship reflect the unity within diversity which is the beauty of Christ’s body, blending “psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs” in a harmonious symphony of praise.
Ignite (Modern Worship) – 11:00am
Held in our recently renovated Connection Center, our Ignite Service is a modern, casual way to attend church. With modern music, a comfortable and family-friendly atmosphere, and a relevant and biblical message, Ignite Worship is designed to connect our everyday lives with the message and life of Jesus.
So what is modern worship? Simply the same as it has been since Jesus walked here on earth. It is giving honor and praise to our Father in heaven. It is living lives in obedience to God’s word and to His call on your life. It is showing His worth to everyone because He is worthy. Let us not confuse worship with music. Worship doesn’t change.
We welcome you to come as you are and to join us as we worship together this Sunday!
Eastwood Campus – 10:45am
Just a few miles down the road, in the community of Eastwood, join us for a modern and casual worship service, where we gather around tables, break bread together (with coffee and light refreshments), and worship in a conversational and participatory style.
Acoustic music, communal times of prayer, and dynamic teaching make up the majority of our service in a truly family-oriented environment. Children are invited to stay in the service or to attend their own age-appropriate worship in our children’s area. Dress comfortably, invite your friends, and check us out this Sunday!.
