Central United Methodist Church

About this church

Central United Methodist Church in Decatur gathers for worship on Sundays at 10:30 a.m., both in person and on YouTube. The service follows a traditional United Methodist order, lasts about an hour, features a chancel choir, and draws mostly on the United Methodist hymnal. Communion is usually celebrated on the first Sunday of the month, and a short communion-only service is held in the chapel at 9 a.m. on the third Sunday. Dress is whatever feels comfortable, and the building is at the corner of Jackson Street and 6th Avenue, about half a mile from the Tennessee River bridge.

Sunday school classes for adults begin at 9:15 or 9:30 a.m. Children ages 4 to 11 meet on the third floor from 9 a.m. on Sundays, and during the school year they also gather on Wednesday evenings after a 5:15 p.m. meal in the Fellowship Hall. A staffed nursery serves infants and toddlers. Youth in grades 6 through 12 meet on Sunday mornings, Sunday evenings from 5 to 7 p.m., and Wednesdays from 6 to 7 p.m. for fellowship, music and Bible study. The church lists a choir rehearsal and a men's Bible study on its calendar, missions, and three parking lots, two off Jackson Street and one off Grant Street.
