Come Join Us
In our home, there is always room at our table.
Charlton City United Methodist Church has been part of the Charlton community since the 1790s, with a rich history deeply rooted in the town. Our mission statement has always been to be a Bible centered community, growing in faith and sharing the love of Jesus Christ with our neighbors. Wherever you are in your faith journey, you are welcome here.
Current Schedule
As we approach the fall season with its cooler temperatures, we will transition back to indoor worship. While inside the church building, we will continue to care for one another by remaining socially distant and wearing our masks.
The Evelyn Hunt Garden Chapel will remain open for the use and enjoyment of all.

Pastor John Lucy
Leading Our Prayers
"Hello, my name is John H.D. Lucy, and I'm the pastor here at Charlton City UMC. I'm originally from Hudson, MA, before I met my wife, Danielle, at St. Michael's College in Vermont and then completed my studies at Wesley Theological Seminary in D.C. Danielle and I have been married since 2014 and have two cute, funny, shy but loving boys named Sebastian and Soren. I'm essentially a teenage convert to faith in Christ and I tried running away from the call God placed on my life to be a pastor. So I come to faith from a place of doubt and skepticism, of intellectual questioning. I know that God can handle our questions and doubts; I know that God loves us even when we wander; I know that God seeks the lost. God is good. And I will love nothing more than walking with you on your journey, wherever it has taken you so far, to find and experience the fullness of God's grace. I'm looking forward to meeting you, chatting with you, and praying with and for you." More . . .
