Welcome to Nolensville. Hopefully you have already discovered that we are the "red-steepled" church that sits in the center of our community. We are United Methodist in our structure and in our beliefs, but we seek to serve the needs of all persons who seek to discover the love of Jesus Christ and desire to grow in living out their discipleship through their daily lives.

Our faith community is made up of all ages and stages in the spiritual journey. We are blessed to minister with children, youth, and their families through many activities and programs that teach and share God's love for all persons. We offer the opportunity for people to have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ and to enter into a community of support and accountability shaped by the love of God and led by God's Spirit.

Jesus spoke about being the "Bread of Life." When you visit with us, we share a small loaf of bread with you to say "thank you for worshipping with us." We want this token gift to be a reminder of the love that Jesus has for you. Also, we want this to be an invitation for you to come again and to consider becoming part of our faith community.

Please know that we are here for you. If you have any needs or concerns that we may be of help to you, please do not hesitate to call upon us. We look forward to having the opportunity to get to know you as our neighbors and as our brothers and sisters in Christ.
