Oak Forest United Methodist Church

About this church

Oak Forest United Methodist Church is a Hayesville congregation in the Oak Forest–Hickory Stand–Ledford’s Chapel Charge. Its mission is to connect people with a vital relationship with Jesus through worship, service, outreach, and spiritual growth. Ministries span children, youth, small groups, recovery, women, mission, music, and the Little Dresses for Africa project, while livestreams and an archive make worship accessible beyond the building.

Sunday worship begins at 10:30 a.m. in person and online. Visitors may enter through the front doors into the Fellowship Hall or use the side doors near accessible parking. Dress is informal. A nursery beside the sanctuary has a window and audio feed, and children may remain in worship or leave after the children’s sermon. The current worship page says Followers of Jesus serves prekindergarten through fifth grade from 10:00 a.m. to noon, while the calendar’s newest schedule narrows Children’s Church to prekindergarten through second grade from 10:30 to 11:30; families should confirm which format is operating. That calendar lists grades six through twelve on Sunday from 4:00 to 6:00 p.m., women’s Bible study Thursday at 10:30 a.m., choir Wednesday at 7:00 p.m., and Men of Honor Saturday at 8:00. The same page retains an older alternate schedule below the current one, so dated notices deserve priority.
