Westwood United Methodist Church
Missions
At Westwood UMC, our mission is grounded in the Wesleyan call to “make disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world.” We serve as a Lighthouse Congregation, offering a warm, welcoming spiritual home for all—especially for those whose former churches have closed or disaffiliated—reflecting our dedication to care, hospitality, and beacon-like witness in Wayne County. Westwood UMC offers a holistic ministry approach: discipleship rooted in Scripture, transformative service locally and afar, and intentional care for spiritual and physical well-being—anchored in Christ's love and the call to justice.

Community Churches On Mission
Westwood partners with our sister chruches St. Luke UMC, Salem UMC, and Princeton UMC to bring the light of Christ to the world. Throughout the year we serve our community through various mission projects. We are currently serving the Smithfield Rescue Center and Women's Shelter to help provide upgrades, and collecting much needed donations.
Other missions in the community
As a church, Westwood UMC also strives to reach out to and love our neighbors and friends as Christ taught us. Many hands make light work, and we welcome all to join us in various missions around us, including the food pantry at Princeton UMC, ministering to those at Helping Hands, the local soup kitchen, and more!
See Pastor Billy on the many ways you can be a part of the mission of the church!
