The United Methodist Church of Newton is a vibrant church with big faith and ideas equally as big. Our church is dynamic and growing. Many visitors to our worship services have chosen to make UMC of Newton their church family, citing the welcoming nature of the church body and the attitude of prayer found within the worship. We have a very active children's ministry with 15+ children under 10 years attending Church School each Sunday. The members of the church maintain a variety of social and political perspectives, but the church body is unified as a community by the love and grace of Christ. The congregation meets at 430 Walnut Street in Newtonville, approximately a half mile south of the intersection of Washington Street and Walnut Street. The church building is located directly across from the new Newton North High School. The faith community of UMC of Newton is not limited to the building. With organized programs, like Newton Walks, Newton Serves, and Women's Lunch Place, along with other less formal ministries, the church remains active within the community.
