And above all these put on love,

which binds everything together in perfect harmony.

Colossians 3:14

Congratulations on your engagement! Your wedding day is one of the most important and memorable days of your lives together. Our traditional sanctuary at FUMC Saline is a wonderful place to make that memory. It is important to keep in mind that a wedding is a worship service of the Church. We presume that the bride and/or groom are Christians or are giving consideration to becoming such. We hope that you will see the FUMC Saline as much more than simply a nice place to get married.

Non-member weddings are permitted at FUMC Saline. However, non-member couples are encouraged to attend worship prior to the wedding so they are familiar with the sanctuary and clergy.

To request a date, please complete and submit the Wedding Request Form. Please note that no date will be officially reserved until you have met with the pastor. Once the form has been received, the pastor or church administrator will contact you to set up this initial meeting.

We would love to answer your questions! For more information, please contact the church office at (734) 429-4730.

WEDDING REQUEST

Blessed are those that mourn,

for they shall be comforted.

Matthew 5:4

FUMC Saline is committed to helping families faced with the loss of loved one. Please contact the church office at (734) 429-4730, and we will be happy to assist you with arrangements for a funeral or memorial service.

If desired, our Loving Hands ministry is available to coordinate a funeral luncheon in Christler Hall for family members and friends attending the service.

Jesus told her, “I am the resurrection and the life. Anyone who believes in me will live, even after dying. Everyone who lives in me and believes in me will never ever die."

JOHN 11:25-26

WHAT IS A COLUMBARIUM?

The word “columbarium” is derived from “Columba”, the Latin for dovecote, a compartmented house where doves, the symbol of the embodiment of the Holy Spirit, come to roost. In modern terms, a columbarium is a consecrated structure used for the inurnment of the ashes after cremation.

Our columbarium, which includes 144 granite-faced, single-front niches, is located to the north of the church building in the Prayer Garden - a place for prayer, meditation, remembrance and reflection.

Interested persons connected to the church through faith, service, community, or family should call the church office at (734) 429-4730 and a member of the Columbarium Committee will contact you.
