Charlottesville Mennonite Church

About this church

Charlottesville Mennonite Church is a Mennonite Church USA congregation founded in 1958 and shaped by an Anabaptist emphasis on community, peacemaking, and following Jesus in daily life. Its mission and worship connect Christian formation with volunteer service, peace and justice, mutual care, and a welcoming community. Communion on the first Sunday and a fellowship meal on the second give the month a recurring sacramental and relational rhythm.

Sunday School begins at 9:30 a.m. Children from age two through high school have faith-learning activities, while adults may choose a Scripture-centered class or a guided book study. Worship starts at 10:30 and ends near noon. Childcare is available, although young children are welcome to remain with the congregation for the service. Masks are optional and vaccination is encouraged under the published health note. The first Sunday includes Communion; the second normally brings a shared meal, so a first visit on either date may feel different from another week. The church stopped regularly recording sermons after its pandemic-era online period and now directs people toward in-person Sunday worship. Visitors should therefore use the homepage for current announcements rather than expect a fresh video archive. The Monticello Avenue congregation welcomes people beyond existing Mennonite ties and publishes an email address for questions before attending.
