Since 1892, we have been Christ’s hands and feet in the Bitterroot Valley.
Who we are.
Distinctly Methodist.
The United Methodist Church is a global denomination that opens hearts, opens minds and opens doors through active engagement with our world. John Wesley and today’s Methodists place primary emphasis on Christian living, on putting faith and love into action.
The Family of God.
To be in the family of God at Corvallis UMC means to be accepted for who we are: loved, cherished, and celebrated. We gather as a diverse community to worship God, fellowship with one another, and spread the gospel of peace to all corners of the valley.
Christ’s Hands and Feet.
Corvallis UMC is committed to being co-laborers with Christ to bring about transformation, reconciliation, and peace in the valley. As a faith-in-action church, our work as Christians is as much spiritual as it is social.
It is our mission to be Christ’s hands and feet in the heart of the valley by seeking the transformation of lives and the flourishing of our community.
Open Doors and Open Hearts.
Corvallis UMC has an open doors and open hearts policy. We proudly voted to remain United Methodist as it seeks to be a more inclusive and welcoming church. People of all ages, races, ethnicities, genders, sexualities, and abilities are welcome and affirmed. Each of us have a song to sing in God’s great chorus of praise.
Transformed by Worship.
At Corvallis UMC our worship of Jesus the Messiah informs who we are. Jesus feasted with the marginalized, restored broken lives, challenged the hypocrisy of religious authority, and undermined the pillars of empire. Our worship informs both our “yes” and our “no.”
Stewards of the Earth.
Corvallis UMC believes it is our responsibility to support and build a more ecologically equitable world. All creation is the Lord’s, and we are responsible for the ways in which we use and abuse it. Our natural world must be valued and conserved because God has called humanity its stewards and caretakers.
