JOIN US THIS SUNDAY!
At Duncan United Methodist Church, everyone is welcome, seriously. There’s no dress code, no insider language, and no prerequisites. You’ll be greeted at the door and ushered into our Sanctuary. Worship begins at 10:00 AM. They will last about an hour, and we’ll spend time worshipping through song, learning from the scriptures, and praying for one another.
Worship at Duncan is help “family style.” Which means we are welcome noisy toddlers, children who wiggle, and those who sometimes want to get out of their seats. In fact, we even have a room off of our entry area where a rocking chair for new mothers can be found and some toys for those who may have a difficult time sitting in worship.
