Our Mission
The mission of the Western Reserve United Methodist Church is to develop disciples who reflect Christ's love through worship, service and deed.
Our History
The Western Reserve United Methodist Church was created in 1965 by the merger of two former Methodist congregations. The Cornersburg Church was located one mile from our present location and the Epworth Church that was located on the south side of Youngstown. The new congregation was relocated in Canfield, Ohio.
Today, the Western Reserve United Methodist Church is determined to reach new generations with the Gospel. The church offers three services on Sunday morning, each one tailored to speak to various generations. During the summer months an additional Saturday night worship is made available in our outdoor chapel, Woodland Haven. The church understands we are in the disciple making business.

Located in the historic Connecticut Western Reserve, our church offers the "personal touch" of Jesus Christ to you and the world. As you browse this website you will find bite-size opportunities of fellowship, service, outreach and education.
I truly believe that Western Reserve is a special place. God is doing something unique here. I came to this congregation in 1994 and have experienced God's grace through the people in this church. I am not alone. Many have grown closer to God through our ministry. It is my sincere prayer that you join us and become a true disciple of Jesus. I invite you to become part of the Western Reserve family.
In His Service,
Russ Adams
