Matthews United Methodist is a church FOR the community and FOR the world. Jesus taught us to love our neighbor as ourselves. Matthews United Methodist actively does this through our passions of volunteering in the community and serving in missions around the globe, leading racial-bridge building efforts with partnerships and events, establishing friendships and caring for individuals with disabilities, and through our genuine welcome and inclusion of all people. Kids, youth and adults learn about God's great love while growing their faith through a relationship with Jesus.
