Welcome, in Jesus’ Name!  That’s the invitation to you, from the entire congregation of Oak Ridge United Methodist Church.

We are passionate about welcoming visitors and newcomers so they feel loved and accepted just as Jesus loves and accepts us. We seek to provide people with an opportunity to connect to the body of Christ by offering you a place to Begin, Belong, Become followers of Christ.

If you are new to the community or just looking for a new beginning, we hope you will consider becoming part of our church family.

Below is some information to assist newcomers to our church. Please join us this Sunday and we hope you will return to worship with us again soon.

You are invited to stop by the Information Center in the Family Life Center or the Guest Station in the Sanctuary lobby for Christian fellowship, campus tour, and information about ORUMC and a Welcome Folder containing information about our church.
