This Advent season, Westminster United Methodist Church invites you to journey with us from weariness to joy as we prepare our hearts for the coming of Christ. Inspired by the wisdom of best-selling author and Duke University professor Kate Bowler, we’ll reflect on how Jesus, our newborn King, brings truth, compassion, restoration, and justice to a weary world.
Join us for worship each Sunday at 10:00 AM in the Sanctuary or participate online anytime. Together, we’ll rediscover the hope and joy of Christmas through inspiring messages and shared community.
