ABOUT US

OUR MISSION is to develop disciples who reflect Christ’s love through worship, fellowship and service.

OUR CHURCH HISTORY

The Western Reserve United Methodist Church was created in 1965 by the merger of two former Methodist congregations: the Cornersburg Church, which 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. Our building is completely handicap accessible. We offer three services on Sunday morning, each one with a different style.

During the summer months, the early worship service takes place in our outdoor chapel, Woodland Haven.

We are committed to being a church that is in the disciple-making business. We invite you to join us!

WHAT WE BELIEVE

The mission of The United Methodist Church is to make disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world.

A United Methodist is someone who joins in that mission by putting faith and love into action. We believe that God loves all people, and that we share in expressing that love. So the United Methodist tradition emphasizes God's grace and in serving others. We believe that Jesus Christ is the fullest expression of God's love--showing us the fullness of God's care through Jesus' teachings, death and resurrection.

John Wesley started the Methodist movement in 18th century England. His teachings on practical divinity (living out our faith) and appeals to reason and experience form important aspects of United Methodist practice today.
