Welcome and thank you for your interest! We've created this web site to show you how God is working in our lives, in our hearts and in our community.

     As you read these pages and you find yourself interested, intrigued or curious about anything - anything at all - please don't hesitate to contact us.  You'll notice a page has been provided for easy contact, it will give you multiple methods of contacting us. We would be happy to answer all of your questions.

     Again we thank you for visiting us at Utica United Methodist Church. We pray that God blesses you as well as leads you and your family to worship here with us.

Greetings from the Senior Pastor
Surfing, Shopping, Hopping

    Whether you are “surfing” or “shopping” or “hopping” I want to encourage you to consider something that may take you by surprise. I’d like you to consider who you are looking for rather than what you are looking for. Let me explain. 

     For me, faith is about relation not religion. I believe that the relationship you have with those you love and with those who love you is the most important dynamic in your life. Likewise, the most important dynamic in the church is the love we share with one another, and above all, with Jesus Christ. That’s why I am here; that's why we are here. Perhaps that’s why you should be here, too.
Your friend in faith,


William Donahue, Senior pastor
