No In-Person Services for the next two months!
Here is our video to share for our worship time this week.
In a gesture to look out for the health and well-being of all our people, CUMC will not hold gatherings for the next two months.
After prayerful conversations with the Worship Committee and Lay Leadership we have agreed this is the best decision. We are conscientiously looking at continuing ministry where possible. We will have online worship, regular communication and, of course, prayer during this difficult time. I will still be in the office during the week and (making visits while obeying good hand washing skills) and be available by email, phone and Facebook! The building will be thoroughly wiped and cleaned in the interim.
Use this time to regroup and recharge and we will return to each other with an ever increased fondness. Stay committed to your spiritual awareness and love of the Lord in this season of Lent.
Bellow you can read the letter from our Bishop.
I am thankful that Lord says to "fear not"!
Grace and peace

Dear United Methodist friends,
Grace and peace to you in this challenging time for the entire human family.
This morning, I was in zoom conferences with faith leaders, public health professionals and several episcopal colleagues. In addition, with you, I received the directive of Governor Cooper for schools to remain closed through mid-May.
I urge you to continue the compassionate practice of not gathering for worship, funerals, weddings, studies, and other groups for the next two months.
Resources abound on our conference website and beyond to help us and to engender our own creativity in leading groups, classes and churches.
Public health leaders are working tirelessly for us, for our families and our neighbors, for our communities and our state and our nation and our world. We give thanks for them and their selfless service. I urge you to help lower the number of people exposed to COVID-19 and to protect your family and also those you may never meet or know. Social distancing, or as a friend re-phrases, distant socializing, is the best way to slow the advance of COVID-19.
I continue to work with the Cabinet, the Conference Staff, and elected Conference Leadership to garner resources for all our life together. I am inspired by your leadership, your creativity, your compassion and your perseverance.
Today, I connected with our heritage anew, remembering John Wesley's concern for public health. The double blessing of physical and spiritual health was - and is - a central dimension of Methodist ministry. Like our spiritual forebears, we are convinced that God wants to give us both inward and outward health. Realizing that the least resourced people of his time were without medical care, he recorded his reflection: At length I thought of a kind of desperate expedient. I will prepare, and give them physick myself. The urgency of our founder resonates in the creative and life-giving responses you are offering.
Let us make holy use of this unwelcome time, going deep in our reflection, going wide in our concern, going carefully in our ministry.
Thank you for the work of healing grace that you offer in this time, in your community, leading your church.
With gratitude to God for all our life together,
Hope Morgan Ward

What is Worship Like?
Our worship is warm, inviting, and engaging. Worship serves to connect us to God and each other. It equips us to go out and serve God in the world. At Creedmoor UMC you will find two services: at 9:00am we have our contemporary service called Horizons. You can read more about Horizons here. At 11:00am we offer our traditional service in the sanctuary. Read more about our traditional service here. Join us for one of our worship services and get to know this loving faith community.
What About My Children?
Your children of any age are always welcome in our worship services. Please feel free to make use of our children's bulletins and chalkboards which are located with the ushers in the entry area of the church. If you or your child is more comfortable with a nursery, ours is available for infants and children up to age 5. The nursery is staffed by a paid nursery attendant and a church volunteer every Sunday. During our traditional service, children are invited to come to the front for a special children's message. After the children's message, children are welcome to leave the sanctuary for Children's Praise and Worship designed especially for children. Children who would prefer to remain in worship with their parents are welcome to do so.
