Fairhope United Methodist Church

About this church

Fairhope United Methodist Church is a downtown congregation that connects worship with Sunday School, children and youth, support groups, recreation, community meals, and local and overseas mission partnerships. Its public welcome is unusually practical about parking, entrances, clothing, and child check-in. Outreach includes the Community Café and food ministries developed with neighboring churches and organizations.

Traditional worship begins Sunday at 8:30 a.m. in the sanctuary. At 11:00, guests may choose traditional worship in the sanctuary or The Gathering, a contemporary service in the Christian Life Center across the parking lot. Sunday School for adults runs from 9:30 to 10:45. The church recommends arriving ten minutes early—or fifteen minutes early when checking a child into the nursery. There is no dress code. Nursery care for ages three months through pre-K is available during all three services and Sunday School, with electronic check-in, background-checked workers, and a two-adult safety rule. Sensory tools and advance accommodations support children who need a quieter or more predictable entry. Parking entrances are available from both Section Street and Morphy Avenue.
