Worship at East Heights UMC

  • People standing in church pews, holding hymn books, participating in a religious service, with stained glass window and wooden beams visible in the background.

    Chapel Worship

    8:30 a.m. in the Chapel

    This early morning traditional worship celebration includes hymns. Because it is held in the intimate 150-seat chapel, it allows you to participate and feel closely involved in the entire worship experience, drawing closer to God and the others in attendance. The experience is designed to include worshippers of all ages.

  • A congregational gathering in a church with people standing and listening to a choir on stage, with lyrics displayed on screens: 'earth by our response and service, earth its destiny may find.'

    Spirit Alive (Contemporary Worship)

    9:45 a.m. in Hedrick Hall

    Spirit Alive moves from praise music and singing to scripture reading and a relevant message. This high-energy, multi-media worship is led by clergy, soloists and musicians. It includes time for prayer, joys and concerns and welcomes those who are led to make a personal commitment in response to God’s message.

    Children, youth and adult Sunday school starts at 9:45 a.m.

  • Women and girls in red robes standing in a line in a wooden-paneled room, with a woman holding a microphone and speaking to the group. A large flower arrangement with pink tulips is visible in the foreground.

    Sanctuary Worship

    11:00 a.m. in the Sanctuary

    A family-friendly, full liturgical celebration with choir and congregational involvement. The sermons, scripture readings and hymns enable you to worship and glorify God.

    Godly Play: Children ages 4 through 3rd grade attending the 11:00 a.m. service will be led upstairs to Room 225 after the Time For Young Christians.

    The Family Matters adult Sunday-school class starts at 11:00 a.m.

Livestream available via Facebook and YouTube at 11am on Sunday morning!

Prayer Requests

East Heights United Methodist Church will be a House of Prayer for all people to experience God’s presence through the power of the Holy Spirit by awakening our hearts, preparing our minds and reaching out through prayer.

SUBMIT PRAYER REQUEST

PHONE CALLS TO HEAVEN

If you have a grandparent, parent, child, grandchild, friend, or acquaintance who has died, you may have had the impulse to pick up your phone and call them. It may make no sense to call on a phone to nowhere, but speaking to your loved one in heaven may offer a connection. A phone call may open your feelings of grief and help you to say the person’s name and have your conversation. We have a new prayer area outside, across from the chapel where you may make your call to heaven to speak to your loved one or even to God.

This idea was begun after watching a video about a man who put a phone in a forest and people made calls to their loved ones. We thank Paul and Carolyn Harrison for putting this prayer spot together for us!
