About this church
Pleasant Hill United Methodist Church in Bessemer, Alabama, holds two Sunday morning worship services. A relaxed 8:30 a.m. service in the chapel features familiar hymns in a smaller setting, and a blended 10:30 a.m. service in the Main Sanctuary combines hymns, contemporary songs, liturgies, creeds, and a children's sermon. Sunday School for all ages meets at 9:30 a.m. The site describes the congregation as multigenerational and its teaching as grounded in Wesleyan theology.
Children are welcome in every service, and a nursery and children's church are available. Sunday School for ages 4 to 12 is split into lower and upper elementary classes, and volunteers complete Safe Sanctuary training and background checks. Kids Club for ages four through fifth grade meets Sunday evenings from 5 to 6:30 p.m., and the Youth Group for grades 6 to 12 meets Sunday evenings and Wednesday evenings at the Impact Cafe youth space. Music groups include a chancel choir, praise band, handbell choir, children's choir, and a big band. A weekly Grace Cafe breakfast is offered near the Family Life Center kitchen. There is no dress code, and guests can call or email the church office ahead of a visit to be greeted and shown the campus. Confirm times on the website.
