Worship is the spring out of which the riches of God`s grace flows. It is the springboard from which Christian service bounds. Vital worship is at the very center of Mocks` congregational life. We provide nursery care, and a children`s story or children`s church at the 11 am service. We strive to make Mocks UMC a place where members and guests bring their families to worship got together each week.
The next Gather Together service is
the first Sunday of every month.
Come join us and sing praises with the band.

Everyone is invited to attend and hear the fascinating story
