Weekly Events at Susanville UMC
The Christian faith is best explored and expressed in community so that we can learn from and encourage each other. Every week we offer a variety of options for you to join us. Click here for the login info for our online meetings. ALL are welcome! Everyone is invited to join us for any or all of these gatherings, each of which has it’s own purpose and vibe. We look forward to having your voice and perspective added to our mix!
Sunday Worship - Sundays @ 10:30 am
Whether online or in person, expect to be greeted with smiles. We treat everyone like family which means we’re all on a first-name basis. For our in-person service, we gather at 10:30 am (you can socialize or just sit quietly and gather your thoughts) and begin at 10:45 am.
Some of us dress casual and some get dressed up; whatever you find comfortable is fine with us. And we love our music; you can sing along or just listen and let the notes and lyrics connect with you. We look forward to seeing you!
The weekly messages connect our lives today with stories from the Bible. With a warm heart and a penchant for sarcasm, we are here to proclaim the Good News of God’s love for everyone.
Bible Study - Tuesdays @ 7:00 pm on Zoom AND Wednesdays @ 12:30 pm in-person in the office
Our Bible study group meets each Tuesday at 7:00 pm on Zoom and each Wednesday at 12:30 pm in-person in our church office. (If it’s a nice day, we might be outside on the grass.)
We typically read, respond to, and discuss the verses for the upcoming Sunday. It's a great way to get us all thinking about the topics and issues presented during our week. Just show up! No prior Bible knowledge or church experience is required. Just come with an open heart, an open mind, and a curious spirit. Click here to contact us so we can expect you.
Faith in Conversation - Seasonally throughout the year
As our schedules allow, we host weekly conversations based on a book, a movie, or anything else that catches the attention of our souls.
The purpose of these gatherings is to discuss how our faith intersects and informs our daily thinking and living. For example… What was life like for Jesus and does that change how we think about Him and His ministry? How do we understand healthy romantic relationships? What do we think about life after death?
Everyone is invited to join us, no matter where you are in your spiritual journey. Any honest question is a good question, and we all enjoy learning from each other.
Unlike our weekly Bible Study group, Faith in Conversation requires you to review each week’s material before our group meets.
Coffee with the Pastor - by appointment
Have a nagging question? Want to learn more about the United Methodist Church? Cabin fever getting to you? Just looking for a friendly place to crash? Grab your favorite beverage and join Pastor Charles and others from our church for “Coffee with the Pastor.”
This is a great way to get to know some of the people who call our faith community home. We never know what someone may ask or say! We talk about whatever is on our minds - sometimes serious, sometimes silly. The only rules? Be kind. Be honest. Be open. :) All ages and backgrounds are welcome.
HOPE Food Pantry - Fridays from 3:00 - 6:00 pm
We host a weekly food pantry out of our Social Hall on Cottage Street. Anyone who needs food is welcome! No ID is required. Please do NOT arrive before 2:15 pm.
If you are already volunteering with us in some capacity, thank you! If you would like to get involved, we would love for you to join our team. For more info about what we do and what we need OR to volunteer, simply visit our Food Resources page and complete the form on that page.
