About Us

 

Thompson United Methodist Church, which celebrated 175 years of ministry in 2004 is a church that teaches traditional Christian faith and values. (See our Statement of Faith) It is important these days to stress that we teach that the Bible is the infallible Word of God and that salvation comes by faith, through grace, and only through the shed blood of Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ is Lord, Son of God, and Savior.

At Thompson we seek to worship God through songs, prayer, and preaching, in our Sunday Morning Services. We offer a mix of contemporary worship songs and old favorite hymns. An open invitation to prayer for any need is given during worship.

On any given Sunday you will find children’s sermons, special music, and exciting events announced. Pastor Harley preaches to offer listeners an opportunity to live for Jesus Christ. Holy Communion is offered the first Sunday of every month.

Thompson Church believes we should live our faith, share our faith, and serve. Our Ministries page shows some of the ways that we do these things. We are glad to receive prayer requests and are interested in visiting the sick or shut-in in our community.

Youth and children are important to us. Young people can and should be nurtured to have a real and saving faith in Jesus and taught to live pure lives. We offer Youth Ministries and children’s ministries to help families in this task. The Thompson Church congregation is part of the Renewal Movement within United Methodism. This church has a great Wesleyan heritage that upholds both personal and social holiness.

Everyone is welcome to worship with us and hear the Good News of Christ. We do uphold a pro-life stance on abortion and teach traditional standards of sexual purity. We have stated our support of our denomination’s stance that while homosexual persons are individuals of sacred worth, the practice of homosexuality is incompatible with Christian teaching.

We hope you will join us in worship, fellowship and study.
