Worship that’s heartfelt, Bible-based, and filled with love.
Our worship is heartfelt and down-to-earth, rooted in the truth of God’s Word and wrapped in the warmth of a close-knit church family. We sing, we pray, and we open the Bible together—lifting our hearts to the Lord and loving one another like neighbors should

The Importance of Serving Others
Jesus made it clear—life in His Kingdom is not about being served, but about serving. When we serve others, we follow His example, showing the same love and humility He displayed when He washed His disciples’ feet. Serving is more than a task; it’s an act of worship. It turns our faith into action, reminding the world that God’s love is practical, compassionate, and personal.
Serving others changes us, too. It softens our hearts, opens our eyes to the needs around us, and draws us closer to Christ. Whether it’s feeding the hungry, encouraging a neighbor, or giving our time and talents, each act of service is a seed planted in God’s Kingdom—one that can grow into hope, healing, and transformation.
When we serve, we reflect the heart of Jesus. And in a world desperate for light, our willingness to serve can be the spark that points someone to Him.

Our Heart for Outreach
At Prairie Lea UMC, we believe love in action is one of the clearest ways to show Christ to our neighbors. Through our Open Door program, we provide emergency food and clothing—especially for domestic violence survivors, single parents, and families in need. With just a phone call, we open our doors and offer practical help, compassion, and emergency necessities when families land in a time of crisis.
Our outreach extends beyond our walls into the heart of our community. We pick up children for Sunday school when their parents can’t bring them, making sure every child has the chance to hear about God’s love. We also partner with our local schools—providing meals for teachers and staff on special occasions, celebrating the start of each school year, and honoring graduating seniors with a special meal as they step into a new chapter of life.
Everything we do flows from a desire to meet needs, build relationships, and share the hope of Jesus in ways that are both practical and personal.

Who we are
We are an Independent Methodist Church, grounded in historic, biblical Christianity and shaped by the teachings and practices of John Wesley. While we are no longer connected to a denomination, we remain firmly rooted in the Wesleyan tradition and honor the theological heritage that shaped the Methodist movement from the beginning.
Our independence simply allows us to operate with increased agility, local accountability, and mission-driven alignment — all while maintaining classic Methodist values.
