Welcome to Central
United Methodist Church.
WE WELCOME ALL. WE WELCOME YOU.

Central United Methodist Church is committed to loving God and loving neighbor with our whole selves-heart, mind, soul, and strength. We believe that all persons are of sacred worth and dignity as part of God's creation, as demonstrated by the ministry of Jesus Christ. We therefore welcome all persons into the life and ministry of our congregation. We welcome, affirm, and celebrate people of all races, cultures, ethnicities, ages, sexual orientations, gender identities, socioeconomic status, education, physical and mental abilities, or faith histories.

Lenten Lunch Services
Lent is coming and each Wednesday you are invited to come and be a part of our services across the district. This series is called: Journey with Jesus: A Lenten Pilgrimage of Grace. Each church is providing lunch following the service. See the list above of dates, churches, and ministers that will be preaching. An offering will be collected at each service to lend a helping hand to Maggie Valley United Methodist Church as they continue to help their neighbors recover from Hurricane Helene.
