Messiah United Methodist Church

About this church

Messiah United Methodist Church’s published summer schedule places adult Sunday school at 9:00 a.m. and one 10:00 service with Communion, choir, Children’s Church, and livestreaming. The Springfield congregation uses blended music and reflection to encourage people in following Jesus. It describes its community through inclusion, compassionate love, acceptance, hope, and healing, with service to neighbors treated as an essential expression of Christian faith.

Nursery care for birth through 24 months is available Sunday mornings from 8:15 to 12:15, staffed by professionals trained in CPR and first aid and screened through background checks. During the academic year, children’s Sunday school uses rotating crafts, music, and Bible stories; first-time families should allow five extra minutes at the lobby Welcome Desk for an escort to the correct room. Messiah began in 1964 as West Springfield rapidly developed. Current outreach includes a Weekend Backpack Program providing shelf-stable food to local children and a fourth-Wednesday produce ministry.
