Groveville is a United Methodist community of faith that was established in 1836. We are just beggars who have found bread telling others where they might be fed. The most important part of our mission is to share God’s love with you!
Our church was founded in 1836 and has been the cornerstone of this community ever since. We owe that to Jesus! Thank you Lord for your being ever present with us!

Come and be part of a unique Bible study experience based on The Chosen, the groundbreaking series about the life of Jesus and His disciples. Each week we’ll watch a scene or episode together and then dive into Scripture to explore the historical background, spiritual lessons, and practical applications for our daily lives.
Every week, we gather on Zoom to lift up our church family, our community, and the needs of the world in prayer.
This is a safe and caring space where we can bring our joys, concerns, and gratitude before God together.

A few weeks ago, The New York Times published an article titled “Finding God in the App Store.” It described how millions of people around the world are turning to chatbots and religious apps to find guidance, comfort, and forgiveness. These tools, trained on sacred texts, have become digital companions for those who seek hope, prayer, or understanding at any hour of the day or night.
One of the things that excites me most in ministry is creating spaces for conversation. Sometimes Sunday mornings go by too quickly and there is not enough time to talk, to ask questions, or to reflect together. That is why I am starting something very special with you, Coffee with David.

This is just the beginning of greater unity and connection between our two congregations. United we are stronger. United and connected we are more resilient, and together we can dream even bigger dreams.

From the very beginning, the Bible tells us that after creating the heavens and the earth, God rested on the seventh day. This is a detail we often rush past, but it holds a beautiful truth. Pastor Edgardo Peña, once pointed out that the very last thing God created was the human being, and immediately after came God’s rest. What if this means that the rest of God is not an empty silence or a distance from creation. Rather, God's rest happens with us present. In other words, we are God’s rest.
