We are glad you are considering visiting Queen Street United Methodist Church. Feel free to ask anyone at the church anything, but you may find answers to the most common questions below.
First Time Visitors
Where do I park?
Our parking lots are located on Peyton Avenue between Queen Street and Herritage Street, across from the church beside the cleaners. Please feel free to use our visitor parking in the closest lot, or our handicapped parking beside the church should handicapped access be necessary.
What time should I arrive for Worship?
To ensure that you have plenty of time to park and find a seat, arrive at the church about 15 minutes early. Our service begins at 11:00 a.m.
Where do I go when I arrive?
Our sanctuary has five entrances, all of which may be used on Sundays. However, we ask that you use the entrances on the corner of Queen Street and Peyton Avenue unless you need access to the handicapped ramp. Using these entrances will give you access to the balconies as well as the main sanctuary.
Do you provide Children’s Church/Nursery?
Yes. We offer a children’s Sunday School class at 9:45 a.m.
During worship, children sit in the sanctuary on the first pew with designated adults who help them participate in all elements of the worship service. During the sermon, the children are led to our Pray-Ground, a space to the side of the sanctuary where the children are free to move around quietly. After the sermon, they move back to the first pew to participate in the remainder of the service.
We also offer a staffed nursery during Sunday School and Worship. Ushers are available to point you in the direction of the Nursery.
