OPEN HEARTS OPEN MINDS OPEN DOORS
an inclusive faith community where all are welcome to
experience the love & grace of God
Sedona UMC is in a season of revitalization. Early in our journey, God revealed the vision that our work would be grounded in social justice and loving our neighbors. We are so proud that Sedona UMC, a faith community that has been serving the Verde Valley for over 40 years, is a fully inclusive and affirming faith community where all are invited to experience the love and grace of God.
We are people with open hearts, open minds, and open doors who value community and relationship. Together, we embrace faith, hope, and unity, creating a welcoming space for spiritual growth and connection.
