Birmingham UMC is a church that people call home. Our campus is a sanctuary for the human soul, healing space for those who are hurting, and where people meet God. We are a place where people grow deeper and flourish in their relationships with Jesus Christ and with each other through worship, discipleship, service, family ministries and community events. This transforms individual lives, families, and our community, creating one rooted in prayer and marked by love.
Birmingham UMC is a Lighthouse Congregation of the North Georgia Conference of the United Methodist Church. We commit to being a United Methodist Church serving those who have lost their church homes due to disruption, disaffiliation, or closure for a season or for a lifetime.
Members of our Beacon Team are ready to help you find the light at BUMC. All are welcome to join our community events and worship services on Sundays at 10 a.m.

WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE UNITED METHODIST?
The United Methodist Church is a global denomination that opens hearts, opens minds and opens doors through active engagement with our world. The mission of The United Methodist Church is to make disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world.
A United Methodist is someone who joins in that mission by putting faith and love into action. We believe that God loves all people and that we share in expressing that love. So the United Methodist tradition emphasizes God’s grace and in serving others. We believe that Jesus Christ is the fullest expression of God’s love–showing us the fullness of God’s care through Jesus’ teachings, death, and resurrection.
John Wesley started the Methodist movement in 18th century England. His teachings on practical divinity (living out our faith) and appeals to reason and experience form important aspects of United Methodist practice today.
