Our Mission

We are building the family of Christ, a community who lives a life of love just as Christ loves us. As followers of Christ we:

Worship God as the Father, Son and Holy Spirit,

Share God's love with the Frederick community and the world,

Build Godly relationships,

Grow to be more like Christ through discipleship,

Serve actively in the church, 

... all to the Glory of God!

Our Vision

The Great Commandments:

Love God.  Love Others: "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.  This is the first and greatest commandment.  And the second is like it: Love your neighbor as yourself."    Matthew 22: 37-39

 

The Great Commission: 

Make Disciples: "Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you."   Matthew 28: 19-20

VBS is Coming!

We invite all the children in the surrounding community to go to the edge this summer for Vacation Bible School. CAMP E.D.G.E.: EXPERIENCE + DISCOVER GOD EVERYWHERE is a free adventure camp taking kids on exciting Bible treks to experience and discover God everywhere, every day. The fun begins July 26 and ends July 30 from 6:30 pm to 8:30 pm here at Christ UMC. Each Bible trek is supported with science activities, songs, crafts, games, and snacks. To be a part of all the lively fun at CAMP E.D.G.E. click here for registration.

 

Our Sharing adVenture: Beginning September 20, 2009 we were  joined by the congregation and staff of Mt. Carmel UMC who are worshiping with us during their construction project. During this "adventure & joint venture", both congregations will cooperate to provide both traditional and contemporary services on Sunday morning and many activities during the week.
