what worship's like
What should you expect on a Sunday morning at Manchester UMC? What about the Saturday evening services? And the Connection Service on Wednesday?
We have diverse and frequent worship services that keep in mind that not everybody worships the same way.

Would you like our traditional service?
We have two traditional worship services:
On Saturday evenings, expect an intimate atmosphere in our small, historic chapel. Music includes hymns backed by organ, and performances by our Chapel Choir. Seating in pews. Dress code tends to be business casual.
On Sunday mornings, experience God's Word in our large and modern sanctuary space. Music is provided by the chancel choir, our talented organists on our huge pipe organs, our handbell choirs, or other special guests. Hymns are sung by the congregation, too. Seating in pews. The dress code ranges from formal to business casual.

Would you like our contemporary service?
On Sunday mornings, our contemporary worship services are held in Fellowship Hall. Enjoy the praise music of our band OneVoice. The sermons are often part of a series. Dress code is generally relaxed - don't be surprised to see shorts and t-shirts. Seating in chairs.

Would you like our Connection service?
On Wednesday evenings, our Connection service is a bridge for our Wednesday Connection programming. It's abbreviated, only 30 minutes long, and features an uplifting message to help you finish off your week. Dress code is pretty relaxed. Seating in pews in the sanctuary
