Welcome to Arapaho United Methodist Church
We are an inclusive Christian community where all are welcome. We are intentional about our faith development: we ask questions, develop deep and lasting friendships, support families of all shapes and sizes and work together to make a positive difference in our community.
Nobody is perfect here, but being a part of this place brings out the best of us. We give and receive forgiveness and experience God's grace through bread and cup, study and service, prayer, people and family.
You are welcome here!

This season marks the 200th anniversary of Silent Night. In the Christmas story, what breaks through the silent night at Christmas?

These three books are great summer reads for your spiritual growth. I've included some discussion questions for each book as a resource for your personal reflection or small group conversation.
Our Christian response begins with tuning in and turning towards this terrible story. It is our responsibility to stay tuned in and to let our hearts break. The word compassion means 'to suffer with.'
