Welcome to St Charles United Methodist ChurchIf you are looking for a church home where you can make new friends and visit with old ones; a place where you can use your talents and abilities to serve one another; a place where you can find out just how much God loves you; then St. Charles United Methodist Church is what you have been looking for. We are a friendly, diverse and very casual congregation where you will fit in, no matter who you are and where you have been. Join us at one of our morning worship services with excellent music and relevant preaching and where we are glad to provide a professional and caring nursery for all our worship services. Sunday Worship ServicesNormally, the church provides two church services every Sunday. The contemporary service is at 8:30 am and the traditional service with choir is at 11:00 am. In between these two services we hold Sunday school for children and adults starting at 9:45 am. In addition to the nursery for infants, we hold a church school for the smaller children. Bring your preschoolers to the service with you and after the children's sermon they will be escorted to class. Dress varies widely from wearing jeans to suits. On the first Sunday of each month we usually hold our Communion service. All believers in Christ are invited to take Communion.
Fourth of July Veterans SaluteWe have had so many requests to post the 4th of July offertory slide show, we've decided to make it available online. It can also be downloaded to you computer.
Sunday Announcements: 29-August-2010WEDNESDAY EVENINGS
Please join Jerry Schultz starting Wednesday 8/25 as we start a new 3 week class by Og Mandino. A classic book, that will be an invaluable guide to philosophy and principles. The book is a parable set in the time just prior to Christiniaty. The book weaves mythology with spirituality into a much needed message of inspiration in this culture of self promotion. The class is simple but profound spiritual philosophy about how to succeed in life, and will touch your heart. Esther: It's Tough Being a Woman provides a personal study experience and in-depth women's Bible study of Esther - a profile in courage. Join Beth Moore in a very personal examination of this great story of threat and deliverance as she peels back the layers of history and shows how very contemporary and applicable the story of Esther is to our lives today.
