Westchester United Methodist Church
A Place Where Love Works
you can connect with us
two ways -
online and in person!

As a spiritual community, we seek to follow the teachings of Jesus, who calls us to love one another, to reach out to those who are in need, and to grow deeper in our journey with God. At Westchester UMC, seekers, pilgrims, saints and sinners explore faith and doubt, justice and Jesus, peace and praise, as we journey together in the familiar and mysterious.

Happenings:
Rhythm & Food - Adults - it's Free!
Rhythm & Food - Adults - feeds body, mind & spirit through a shared meal and recreational music-making, using an evidence-based whole person strategy called HealthRhythms. HealthRhythms promotes community and ensures a healthy non-strenuous workout. Adults are invited to find that center in your soul where your heart is strengthened by joy, celebration, rhythm, and food. Rhythm & Food - Adults takes place every second Tuesday at 11:00 a.m. in the Fellowship Hall. After our drum circle, we will enjoy a delicious lunch together. Drums are provided - no experience required - and it’s FREE! Put your hand on your heart - feel the beat - we all have a drum within us! To RSVP, please CLICK HERE to email Pastor Lyda - we request RSVP's the Sunday before the event.
