At Wiseburg United
Methodist Church we are, with United Methodists around the
world, heirs to the deeply meaningful historic forms of
devotion which have been the hallmark of the people called
Methodist from the beginning.
Our service is traditional
and our prayers, music and message are grounded in the Holy
Bible. We gather for worship on Sunday mornings and other
special occasions because of the hope, peace, and joy we
find in knowing and serving Jesus Christ. Our prayer is
that we can share that with you.
We list our current
order of worship here so you can be comfortable and know
what to expect when you join us for worship this Sunday.
Please come and worship Almighty God together!

PRAYER
OF CENTERING
Creator of this and every season - you know us and this global
village. You know what we think and why we behave as we do.
Thank you for caring for us even when our minds are narrow
and our hearts are hard and our prejudices stubborn. Thank
you for staying with us wherever we go! In light and in darkness,
we feel your watchfulness. During this hour, we diligently
listen for your voice and intently pay attention to our inward
responses. Amen.
