Where is the Delphi UM Church?

118 N. Union St., Delphi  IN 46923

Yahoo map  We are just 2 blocks North and 1 Block East of the main stop light in downtown Delphi.

Where do I enter the building for worship?

Most visitors choose to enter our main double doors on the East side of the building on Union St.  These doors enter into the back part of our sanctuary and someone should be at those doors to greet you and to answer any questions that you might have. (We also have a wheelchair ramp that enters into our Office area on the east side of the building.  These doors will still lead you into the worship area if you turn right immediately after entering.)

Where do I park?

Well, we only have 4 parking spots for our church building itself (partly why we are looking to build a new building soon).  Most people choose to park in the Regions Bank parking lot to the southwest of our building (corner of Main and Franklin), or on these streets adjacent to this parking lot.

What is available for my children?

We have a staffed nursery from 8:30am to 12:30pm for newborns up to age 3 that is located in our Christian Education building (west side of our building that has entrances on the south or north side and go up the stairs to the main level).  They have a sign-in and sign-out procedures as well as a pager system to give to caregivers.

We have Sunday School at 10am for Preschool (ages 3 to 5) and School age (6 to 12) in the upstairs level of our Christian Education Building (enter the Treehouse through the north stairway please).  Site map for inside building.

We have a children's sermon/message as a part of every service where the children (ages 3 to 12) are welcome to go up front to the stage to hear what is being said.  After this message, the children (ages 3 to 2nd grade) have the option of going to the downstairs of the Chr. Ed. building for Children's Church for the remainder of service.  The children are also welcome to go back to their seats with you!

What happens during the service?

Our Traditional service at 8:45am includes more traditional hymns, Choir & Bells, Lord's prayer, and Doxology at the end of offering (we all stand and sing together). 

Our Contemporary service at 11am includes songs heard on Christian radio, shaking of hands & greeting of those around you at the beginning of service.  (If you arrive at 11am or after, you might need an usher's help in finding a seat.  Our recommendation, arrive by 10:45am to get your choice of seat!)

How does the congregation observe Communion?

We observe Communion in various ways, usually on the first Sunday of the month.  Our most used method of offering Communion is for each person to walk forward to the front of the worship area and kneel at one of the altars.  At that time, you will be handed your bread and juice to consume.  Lastly, you will be dismissed with prayer along with others around you at the altar, then the next group will fill the altars until everyone has been served.
