Practicing Discipleship

Discipleship (formerly volunteering) is the foundation and springboard of our church's reaching out to our church and community! Find out more about how you practice your faithful life in a variety of ways.

United Women in Faith

Our United Women in Faith organization is open to all women of the church. We are organized to be in mission and have ministries that we sponsor all over the world. Find out more about how to connect with other ladies and help others!

Food Ministries

"For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink (Matthew 25:35 NIV)."  

We serve Jesus himself when we feed the hungry. Learn more about this important ministry in our community.

Missions

IOP Ilula Orphan Program has been a nongovernmental outreach to the Ilula area in Tanzania for over 20 years. They have 27 outreach programs which employ over 100 people from the area. They house 39 orphan girls but have over 500 students in foster programs.

Our church has partnered with this organization to raise money for their garden and agriculture. We also sponsor two Tanzanian students as they pursue higher education.

Kid's Ministry

It's our prayer that by creating fun, exciting environments where kids can experience God in new ways, we'll help you avoid the Sunday morning struggle and make church a place your kids can't wait to get to each week!

Music Ministry

“Let the message of Christ dwell among you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom through psalms, hymns, and songs from the Spirit, singing to God with gratitude in your hearts.(Colossians 3:16)” The music ministry at Portage United Methodist Church is as varied as our church.  Music plays a vital element in worship and the life of our church.  There are many opportunities for people to share their gifts and talents musically.

Youth Confirmation

PUMC's Youth Confirmation 2022-23 will begin in September 2022. If you consider your children's confirmation, please register. Registration is open until August 31, 2022.

Pastoral Counseling

Pastoral Counseling makes itself unique and different from other kinds of counseling/therapy in that it is a triadic conversation among a church member, her pastor, and their God. If you need tangible hearing ears along with God's attention to you, reach out to Pastor KwangYu. Confidentiality in pastoral counseling is second to none.
