JULIAN UNITED METHODIST CHURCH
WORSHIP
Join us for worship every Sunday at 11am. Our service is casual and leans more toward a traditional style, with hymns accompanied by one of our talented pianists.
You can wear whatever makes you comfortable for worship. Whether you're in jeans, shorts, or your best Sunday dress, we have a seat for you in our sanctuary.
Online Worship
If you can't make it in person, worship with us online! Join us live at 11 each week on our Facebook page.
Holy Communion
We often celebrate Holy Communion (also called The Lord's Supper, or the Eucharist) on the first Sunday of the month. Whenever we do, our Communion Table is an open one. Anyone who wishes to be in relationship with God is invited to the Table, regardless of church membership, age, or any other factor. We use unfermented grape juice, and gluten-free wafers are available.
Accessibility and Participation
We strive for all persons to participate fully in our worship services. If any accommodations would help you engage in worship, please talk to Pastor Andrew so we can work with you to ensure you're able to participate!
Children in Worship
Children of all ages and levels of excitement or fussiness are always welcome in worship! We also have caring volunteers who will take kids during the sermon time for activities just for them.

OUR PASTOR
Rev. Andrew Baten
Hi! I'm Andrew, a Florida native (Go Gators!) who loves living as a transplant to North Carolina. I am married to Nikki - also a United Methodist pastor - and we have two children - 5-year-old Asher and almost-1 Ellie. I love everything about food: growing it, cooking it, and of course eating it. I enjoy getting outside with my family to explore the best of what this beautiful state has to offer, and traveling to explore new places.
I am proud to be the pastor of this congregation, and I look forward to walking alongside you on your journey of faith! In addition to my role here, I am also the pastor of an emerging community of United Methodists in Southeast Guilford County. Find out more at southeastguilfordumc.org.
I would love to hear from you! You can reach me at 336.339.9892 (call or text) or abaten@wnccumc.net
