How Firm a Foundation

The Williamsville United Methodist Church has been a part of the Village of Williamsville since 1821.

At Williamsville United Methodist Church, we welcome all people to encounter Jesus Christ. We strive to provide a spiritual community that nurtures active fellowship and participation through a variety of ministries. Within our church community, we support and encourage people of all ages to join us on a spiritual journey with Christ.

Williamsville United Methodist Church has been serving the people of Western New York longer than any other church in the area. While we are proud of our historic presence in the Village of Williamsville, we know what keeps us relevant is far more than our building and history. It is the joy, love, and respect accorded everyone who enters our church, the quality of our staff, the strength of our programs, and our varied ministries.

We encourage you to explore our Web site to learn more about Williamsville United Methodist Church. We hope you will return to this Web site often to read announcements and articles that provide information about upcoming services, ministries, and events. You might also enjoy reading inspirational thoughts from our pastors and staff on the "Bread for the Journey" page.

We invite you to join us for Sunday worship, Christian education, and fellowship. Our doors are always open and we look forward to getting to know you.

The Williamsville United Methodist Church is a community of people striving to be contemporary disciples of Jesus Christ. As disciples of Jesus Christ, we affirm that God has a purpose for our congregation and that our church can have a telling impact. To that end, our mission is to be and make disciples for Christ! We accomplish this by worshiping God and nurturing each other through our common faith in a loving environment, and by proclaiming the Good News of Jesus Christ by our daily actions, and by our service in this community and in the world.

We as United Methodists share a common heritage with all Christians.
