About Us

"You are no longer strangers, but members of the community, and of the family of God...

Sequoyah United Methodist Church has been serving the people of Fayetteville for almost half a century. We’ve grown from a small group seeking to provide a church home for Methodists on what was then the east side of town, to a church home in the midst of Fayetteville for families and individuals from all walks of life.

...built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ Himself being the chief cornerstone. In Him the whole building is joined together and rises to become a holy temple in the Lord...

God is the source of our strength. We seek to share God's love, to serve the community, and to support one another as we grow in the knowledge and presence of God. Through vibrant worship, authentic fellowship, and active outreach, we support one another in finding Christ in our daily lives.

...in whom you also are being built together for a dwelling place of God in the Spirit." Ephesians 2:19
