About Us
St. Barnabas United Methodist Church is a community committed to connecting with God, connecting with each other and connecting to the world. Following the priorities taught and lived by Christ, we believe the great focus of a Christian life is to love God with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength and to love your neighbor as yourself.
If you've been following God your entire life, you're welcome here. If you're new to faith, you're welcome here. If you're not really sure you believe in God at all, you're welcome here. No matter where you are on the road to faith, we want to walk alongside you as you go. Our hope is that as you join us on the journey, you'll discover a God who is active, alive, and at work in your life.
