Did you know Byron Center United Methodist Church is the oldest Church in Byron Center, Michigan?   We are 150 years old and going strong!!! 

In 1860, a few Byron Center residents gathered in homes for bible study, which eventually led to the purchase of property on the corner of Prescott and Freeland in 1872. Fast forward to 2024, and our Methodist ministry remains in our original location continuing to honor our precious Lord. Throughout the years, we have seen a host of world and local events that helped to shape who we are today. We have faced spurts of growth and building expansion, times of struggles and hardships, welcomed a variety of dedicated pastors, and also used resources on the missions we support. Some of those missions of late include: our fall School Supply Drive, blankets for the United Methodist House, donations of goods to Byron Community Ministry, United Methodist Summer Camp scholarships, carrying the cross through town on Good Friday, annual participation in Byron Days with a free Family Fun Night, Hangar Youth Ministries, Mobility Worldwide, and UMCOR to name just a few.  Our BCUMC goal is to continue to grow the faith journey that was started in 1860.
