  • ABOUT THE BIBLE

    We believe that the Bible is the primary authority for our faith and practice.

  • ABOUT THE KINGDOM OF GOD

    The kingdom or reign of God is both a present reality and future hope.

  • What should I wear?

    Come as you are. There’s no dress code. Usual attire ranges from jeans to suits.

  • What happens during a service?

    Worship services include hymns, readings of Scripture, choral singing, messages with contemporary themes, and pipe organ musical accompaniment. An easy-to-follow printed bulletin is a guide for the service and contains information about activities and upcoming events as well. Please complete an attendance card located at the end of the pew.

  • Can I participate in communion?

    Roberts Park UMC celebrates communion on the first Sunday of the month. As practitioners of an open table, all are invited to commune together. We do not discriminate based on how old or young you are, whether or not you've been baptized or hold a church membership, or any other reason. When we say all are welcome, we hold firm to the belief that all means all.


    We celebrate communion by using intinction, which is when communicants dip their bread into the common cup of grape juice and partake in the elements together. Pre-packaged elements are available for those who prefer. 

  • Are children welcome?

    Children are welcome at all worship services. Children are invited to join teachers for a fun time of Worship & Wonder outside the sanctuary during the normal worship time. The children are dismissed during the first hymn.

  • is there fellowship after the service?

    Absolutely! A casual coffee hour follows the 10:30 a.m. service every Sunday. Roberts Park is a friendly congregation, and you will probably be approached by a few people wanting to introduce themselves and chat a bit as well.
