Who are the people of Avon United Methodist Church?

In the past seven years, our congregation has experienced tremendous growth.  We are one of the fastest growing United Methodist congregations in the South Indiana Conference.  With just over 200 people in worship in 1999, we are currently having up to 600, and many Sundays over 600, people in worship in one of our four Sunday services.  Our growth seems to reflect the trends of growth in our growing area of Hendricks County.  We believe that God is blessing our congregation with people as they experience the love of God in and through our congregation.

Our membership is diverse in many ways: age, race, marital status, economic status, faith development, country of origin, and many more.  We are single, married couples, children, youth, young adults, middle-aged, and senior people.  We have people from all over the Hendricks County area and Indianapolis area worshipping with us each week.

We welcome the community to use our facilities as often as possible.  So you will find several different groups using the church facility on any given day or night.  In addition, we have our own on-going committee work meetings, spiritual formation growth classes and bible studies.  AUMC is a busy place.

Finally, we are committed to transforming our community and world in to a more Christ-like place through our prayers, our presence, our gifts, and our service.  We financially support mission work here and around the world, involve our members in hands on mission work and through our own spiritual growth.
