the arts for many years. As we continue in the twenty-first century, we uphold that heritage with a dynamic program of Christian music, art and drama.

CUMC offers choir programs for all ages, handbell and instrumental ensembles, banner and parament ministry,
Great Hall art displays, as well as a Fine Arts Camp for
