For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. – John 3:16-17
Pastor Welcome
Welcome to Central Methodist Church King Mountain. Since 1874, people have entered this place of worship, felt the warmth of a Christian community, and sensed the empowering presence of a holy and loving God. By no means are we a perfect community of disciples but we strive to live a life in relationship with Jesus Christ.
We hope you’ll find us to be an encouraging and friendly family of Jesus Christ. Central is an enriching church community. Our mission is to “Live and Love as Christ.” This means that we not only serve God within the church walls but we also desire to serve God outside of the church walls. We invite everyone to experience the love and grace of our Almighty God.
The Global Methodist Church is made up of interconnected disciples with a vision to join God in a journey of bringing new life, reconciliation, and the presence of Christ to all people, and to helping each person reflect the character of Christ. We would like to have the opportunity to get to know you and have you get to know us. We hope to meet you soon!
