Seeing the Light

We celebrate Epiphany today! Epiphany is all about light. The star in the sky leads the magi to Jesus, the light of the world, the revelation of divine love who came to dwell among us.

Scripture: John 1:1-18

Who Are We?

Whoever you are, whoever you love, and wherever you are on your faith journey, you are welcome here. As United Methodists, we celebrate open minds and open hearts, seeing everyone as a beloved child of God. Join us in living out Jesus’ call to love God and neighbor.

Come find your place at Dixboro UMC.

What We Believe

  • The Trinity
    We believe in one God, revealed in three persons:

    • Creator (Father) – Maker and sustainer of all life

    • Redeemer (Son) – Jesus Christ is both fully God and fully human. He is our Savior.

    Holy Spirit – God’s presence and power working among us.

    Jesus Christ
    Jesus lived without sin, died for our sins, and rose again. He offers forgiveness, new life, and eternal life to everyone who believes.

    Holy Spirit
    The Holy Spirit changes hearts, strengthens us, shows us God’s truth, and helps us grow to be more like Jesus and build community.

    The Bible
    We believe the Bible is God’s true Word. It shows us who God is, guides our faith, and helps us live with purpose, love, and grace.

    Humanity & Sin
    All people are made in God’s image and are valuable. Though sin separates us from God, His grace allows us to be healed and restored.

    Salvation
    We are saved by God’s grace when we trust Jesus, not by what we do. Forgiveness is a gift we receive when we turn to God and believe.

    Eternity
    We are made to live forever with God. Through Jesus, we have hope for heaven and the promise of God’s never-ending love.

  • Christian Life

    Following Jesus transforms us. We grow in love, faith, and service - not to earn God’s favor, but in response to it. Good works are the fruit of a life rooted in Christ.

    The Church

    The Church is the body of Christ in the world. It exists to glorify God, care for one another, pursue justice, and share the Good News with all.

  • Baptism
    Baptism is a visible sign of God’s invisible grace. In it, we are welcomed into the family of Christ. We baptize people of all ages, celebrating God’s work in every life—whether infant, youth, or adult.

    Communion
    We celebrate Holy Communion on the first Sunday of every month. All are welcome at Christ’s table, regardless of membership. In this sacred meal, we remember Christ's love, receive God’s grace, and anticipate the heavenly feast to come.

    We are a church with a family spirit - there for one another in life’s joys and sorrows.
    We believe Christ welcomes every person - and we strive to do the same.

    Searching for something to believe in? Longing for a spiritual family to belong to?
    You are welcome here.
    Our hearts, minds, and doors are open to you.

Plan Your Visit

  • We are located in the Village of Dixboro, part of Ann Arbor, Michigan, at the corner of Church Rd. and Short Street. We are at the northeast corner of the Dixboro Village Green, where you will also see an historic one-room schoolhouse. Our church is east of US 23, northeast of the intersection of Plymouth Rd. and Dixboro Rd.

  • There is plenty of free parking available. If you park on Church Street, right in front of the church, you can enter through the large double doors and you will be at the back of the sanctuary where we worship. Or come in any other entrance and you will enter the sanctuary from a single door at the front of the church. There are ushers and/or greeters at both entrances.

  • Suits and Sunday dress are not required here (though feel free to dress up if you like). The majority of people dress at a casual to business casual level during most of the year.

  • Children of all ages are welcome to worship with their families. Every service has a “Sermon on the Steps” time for children. There is a nursery across the hall from our Fellowship Hall for Infants - 24 months; our ushers are happy to guide you, should you need assistance. Sunday School is offered for all ages.

  • No, you are our guest. Having you here with us is a gift in itself. In fact, many people who regularly worship with us donate to the ministries of our church through Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT), so the plate may pass many hands without receiving a gift on Sunday morning.
