Montpelier, Indiana is located on Highway 18 between Highways 1 and 3.
Our Service Time is 9:15 on Sunday morning. Sunday mornings are a little different than twenty years ago. Most of our folks dress casually, which encourages a come as you are atmosphere. Our music is led by the worship leader and accompanied by one of our two pianists, Kaye Huffman and Junior Mallot. Plus, we have the treat of having Bonnie Kellogg joining us on the organ. The style of worship is changing to meet the needs of the congregation. More singing has been added. Older songs mixed with some new tunes have become a foundation for our worship. We have a time to share our joys and concerns with one another. Currently, the pastor keeps the congregation on their toes by changing the worship format or style on any given Sunday. Also, the church has added the following statement to the worship folders: "If you are a visitor this morning, we do not expect you to give to the church financially. Rather we would like you to receive the blessing that God has for you this morning." Money is not the reason the church exists rather our purpose is to help you to become the best person that you can be. Will you come and worship with us this Sunday?
A staffed nursery is available for children under the age of five. Our nursery workers are supervised by a nursery coordinator. As with all of our children's programs there is a written policy regarding the protection of our children and youth. Look for the signs or ask one of the greeters as you come into the church. {Return to the top}
Children's worship folders are available with activities, games, and coloring pages.

At 10:30, opportunities for learning and fellowship are available. Currently, we have classes for K-12th and one class for adults called 'The Brunch Bunch'. As the name suggests this group likes to eat while they learn and fellowship together. Our Kindergarten class is led by Sue McCollum, elementary classes are led by Christy Clark, and Jr. High - Senior High is led by Cindy Layman. {Return to the top}

Every person within the church has something to contribute to the ministry of the church and the community. If it were not for the lay person, the church could not exist. Each person has been given certain talents and gifts and is able to use those for the benefit of ministry into the community. Our lay people are involved in numerous projects, agencies, and community service. Each year, a service is held to celebrate the work and ministry of the laity within the church and the world.
