Welcome to Kirkwood United Methodist Church

Wherever you are on your journey, you are welcome here—just as you are. Rooted in the heart of Kirkwood, Missouri, our church is committed to reaching outward in love and service to our neighbors.


We believe in a God whose love knows no bounds. Following the teachings of Jesus, we strive to love our neighbors without exception. At KUMC, we welcome, affirm, and invite all people to worship, serve, and lead—regardless of race, color, national origin, gender identity, sexual orientation, marital status, age, physical or mental ability, economic circumstance, or political perspective.

There are no asterisks in the love of Christ. Here, you are invited to experience and embody God’s radically inclusive and transforming love—for yourself and for the world.

"And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God."

Ephesians 3:18-19
