FAQs


Who can receive communion?

The table of Holy Communion is Christ's table, not the table of The United Methodist Church or of the local congregation. The table is open to anyone who seeks to respond to Christ's love and to lead a new life of peace and love, as the invitation to the table says.

We offer both traditional bread as well as a gluten-free, nut-free, dairy-free, egg-free bread so that ALL are able to share the Lord’s table together.


What should I wear to worship service?

In keeping with our mission statement, we welcome all people as they are. Dress how you feel most comfortable, whether it’s t-shirt and jeans or your “Sunday Best.” You will see a wide spectrum of dress in our congregation.


How do I become a member of BEverley Hills?

You can email Pastor Deborah if you would like to join Beverley Hills Community at deborahporras@vaumc.org


What will my children do?

During Worship Service, Pastor Deborah will have a special time for children to gather and hear a message about the sermon especially tailored to them. Afterward, children will be dismissed to Worship Our Way (WOW) with Ruth to have an interactive lesson and activity. Learn more on our Children’s Ministry here.
