A Message from Pastor Nick 

Welcome to Goodrich United Methodist Church! Our roots in this community date back to 1836. While our name and buildings have changed, our belief in God's grace for all remains the same.  Today, we are a welcoming congregation where everyone can worship freely. At GUMC, we recognize that we are all God’s children—including you. Through worship, study, and service, we strive to grow in faith and share God’s love with our neighbors.  If you seek a church where you can truly be yourself, I invite you to join us. No matter your background, GUMC is a place to rest your soul and embrace your identity as a beloved child of God. Hope to see you soon!

-Pastor Nick Berlanga -

What's Happening at GUMC

Jesus loved to speak in parables, some are hard to understand, but others get right to the point.  This Sunday we look at a story that is pretty straightforward. Join us as we explore Jesus' words about forgiveness. 

Matthew 18:21-35  
The wait is finally over! Please join us on Saturday, September 26th for the long awaited “Dinner with Friends.” A community outreach event in Our Family Life Center, which will be transformed into an elegant and affordable evening, complete with white clothed table and chinaware.
