Music
Music Ministry has been the heart and soul of UMCA for generations. Now, during a season of pandemic, we are finding creative ways to keep music central to our worship and expression of our faith!
We embrace many styles of music and include a wide variety of music in our worship, such as organ, piano, handbells, acoustic guitar, and many ensembles. Styles range from classical to modern and even include the occasional visit from a jug band or a barbershop quartet! We love to have musicians of all ages and skill levels use their gifts to glorify God!
We also see music as a ministry and love caroling at the local hospital each year!
We’re looking for musicians willing to share their talents. Interested? CONTACT US!
United for the Community!
Our vision at UMCA is providing hope to our community. Our signature ministry, United for the Community, encompasses all the ways that we seek to live in service to others as followers of Jesus. This ministry builds community as we rely on many community partners who come alongside us in these ministries.
We invite our neighbors to a variety of events throughout the year, including a back to school backpack giveaway and summer Bible day camp for kids! Church members coordinate and volunteer for local organizations including Meals on Wheels, ACBC food shelf, local schools, domestic violence shelters, and many more! We send contributions throughout the year to missions through UMCOR.

Caring Ministry
Making connections with each other is one of the best things about becoming part of a congregation! Here at UMCA, we are finding creative ways to build and maintain connections wherever we can, especially as many of the people we love most are feeling isolated and at high risk.
You can offer care and support in a variety of ways. Here are a few ideas:
- We can give you a few names of people who would enjoy receiving a card now and then, and you can write to them
- Join our calling team and commit to call one or several folks each week to check in, listen, and pray together.
- Let us know if you’d be willing to deliver groceries, pick up medications, or help in other ways.
