Our Mission

At Buncombe Street UMC, our mission is simple yet profound: to love God, love people, and make disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world. We believe that by living out these core values, we can create a community that reflects the love and teachings of Christ in all that we do.

We also offer opportunities for spiritual growth through Bible studies, small groups, and classes for all ages.

Community and Fellowship

At BSUMC, we believe that church is more than just a place to worship; it’s a community where people can connect, support one another, and grow together in faith. We offer numerous fellowship opportunities, including social events, community service projects, and special interest groups that bring people together based on shared interests and passions.

Service is at the heart of who we are as a church. We are deeply committed to serving those in need, both locally and globally.
