-
God’s love is for everyone—no exceptions.
-
Jesus Christ offers us hope, purpose, and new life.

The Church exists not for itself, but to serve the world.

Faith is a journey, and questions are welcome.
We practice open communion, value personal and social holiness, and are continually growing in what it means to follow Christ.
Our History & The Epicenter
Founded over 125 years ago, Edwardsville UMC has been a cornerstone of the local community, adapting to meet new needs while remaining faithful to the gospel.
Our current sanctuary is home to our traditional worship service, where the beauty of hymns, organ music, and liturgy connects us to generations of faith before us.
The Epicenter, our original sanctuary, now houses our contemporary worship gathering, “Included at the Epicenter.” This creative, relaxed service features live music, a meal, and space for authentic connection. It’s a reminder that while buildings age, the Spirit continues to move in fresh ways.
