In 1743 John Wesley suggested that we ought to evidence three things in our lives. First, "by doing no harm and avoiding evil in every kind..." Second by doing good through offering ourselves as the body of Christ in giving food to the poor, clothing the naked and by visiting those who are sick. Thirdly, by attending to the ordinances of God such as the public worship of God, ministry of the word, Communion, private prayer, searching and studying the Scriptures, fasting and abstinence.

The various forms of ministry at Shawnee place heavy emphasis upon Wesley's suggestions, and we believe the results of that labor provide every member with opportunities for fellowship and mutual support while we offer ourselves in love to the Lord.

Adult ministries at Shawee abound! We offer Sunday School, Fellowship, Spiritual Growth via organized classes and a church library second to none. Considering our rich heritage of service to others, you are at home at Shawnee United Methodist Church!
