WELCOME TO SALEM!

Sunday Service:  please click on the link below for a recorded version of our current worship service.
 
We are a people of Biblical faith.  Our faith is guided by Scripture, tradition, experience and reason.  For United Methodists, the Bible is the record of God’s people living out God’s promise.  Join us on Sunday mornings for music, scripture readings and a message on today’s topics.
 
We are located at 541 Hwy 59 in Waukesha, Wisconsin.

 SUPPORT OUR MINISTRIES

Click here to see how to donate to Salem United Methodist Church
 

Our annual Fund-raiser for Mujila Falls Agricultural Center in Zambia, Africa will be held April 2nd.  Mujila Falls teaches others to help themselves by educating people about raising animals and many types of crops.  In the last two years, our church raised enough money to build a small dormitory for those wanting to stay short term to learn about farming.  We also supplied money to furnish the dorm, called Salem House, in our honor.  This year we are raising funds to plant an orchard of fruit trees around the dorm and other new buildings at Mujila Falls. Attend our service, with a zoom call to the missionary included, make a donation, and receive a slice of pie!

GOOD GRIEF!!!   The Season of Lent
 
Very truly I tell you, unless a kernel of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains only a single seed. But if it dies, it produces many seeds. John 12:24
 
We all suffer tremendous losses during our life. Can the pain of grief become a gift of new life overtime?  Let us walk with Jesus this Lent through the book of John as we discover how God brings new life out of loss and grief. Every week we will start the message
time with a personal short story of someone who experienced different kinds of loss and grief in their lives.
