Matthews United Methodist Church

Matthews United Methodist Church Seeks to Be: All-Inclusive Christian Community Which Lifts High The Cross & Shares The Love Of Jesus 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. Matthews UMC is a Lighthouse Congregation of The Western North Carolina Conference of The United Methodist Church. We commit to remain a part of The United Methodist Church and to serve those who have lost their church homes through disaffiliation or closure.

Our scripture for this coming week is Matthew 18:15-20, Jesus’ teaching on how to handle disagreements. We will be considering where our focus is. Is our focus on being wronged, OR is our focus on moving forward? The way we answer that determines the kind of routine we live.
