Welcome!

We are a community of believers committed to living out our mission: with open hearts and minds, we welcome people for Christ, grow people in Christ, and serve people with Christ.

Take time to browse through our various ministries, and you will discover imperfect people striving to know more about God and to make a difference in our community and world. We would love for you to visit a worship service and see first hand what we are all about. We may appear like a big church on the outside, but we really have a friendly, small-church feel. Yet we are large enough to offer an array of ministries for all ages and stages of life. Come and see what God is doing at FUMCR!
          Clayton Oliphint, Senior Pastor
