Maybe you want to reconnect with church again after an absence or are attending church for the very first time. Maybe you are an active church-goer who just moved to the area. Whatever your situation, you might have questions before you check us out. That’s okay. Here are some of our most frequently asked questions. If you have others, feel free to give us a call at (317) 745-4330 or email us at info@danvilleumc.org. We can’t wait to meet you!
Can I come as I am? Yes! You will find a variety of dress at DUMC … from suits and dresses, to khakis or jeans. Being here is much more important than what you are wearing.
Where do I park? Parking is all around the building. Handicap parking is on the west side of the building on the curb. There are many more spots to the north and east. We do not have assigned parking at DUMC; anywhere you find a spot is fine!
Will there be someone to help me find my way? We have greeters at all entrances who will be happy to welcome you and show you where to go.
What are worship times and styles? We have a worship service at 10:00. We offer Sunday school for all ages before service starting at 9:00.
Will I be embarrassed? Absolutely NOT! We’re not going to ask you to stand to be recognized. We won’t ask you to sit down while we stand up. Though some folks will have the words to songs or prayers memorized, this is certainly not a requirement. All words and lyrics will be shown on a screen in the front of the church. All who attend are welcome to take Holy Communion in the Methodist Church, and we can direct you on how to participate. Men, women, and children are all encouraged to participate in worship at DUMC.
Are there activities for my kids? We love kids! We offer Family Adventure Time, an opportunity for families to learn together. We also offer a nursery for our smaller attendees. But if you would prefer to have your children of any age stay with you in worship service, please know that the sound of children is music to our ears! We don’t expect perfect behavior!
