Richmond, Virginia · Since 1953
A place for deep faith
and honest questions.
Welcome
At Welborne UMC, we are cultivating a community rooted in local presence and committed to justice — a place where the sacred meets the accessible and where everyone can participate.
For Every Generation
Four programs for growing minds.
Welborne Kids
Sundays for Kids & Youth
Nursery for infants and toddlers opens at 9:00 AM. Pre-K–5th graders join the 10:00 AM service for the Children's Moment, then move into a worship experience built around story, art, and scripture. 5th–12th graders gather Sunday afternoon for shared meals, service projects, and conversation.

Welborne Christian Preschool
A half-day weekday program (9:00 AM – 12:00 PM) for ages 2–5 focused on play-based learning and discovery.

Connect with Us
Every person is gifted. No titles needed.
We don't keep a roster of insiders and newcomers. Whoever walks through the door brings something this community needs — questions, laughter, music, doubt, hospitality, time. Come find your people, and a way to belong that fits the shape of your life.
Find Your PlaceInclusive Disciple-Making
Gather. Grow. Go.
Gather
Around tables, in pews, on porches. We start by being present for each other and to God — Sunday worship, small groups, shared meals.
Grow
Faith deepens through discipleship. Studies, classes, baptism, and spiritual practices that take questions seriously and let scripture do its slow work.
Go
Out into Maybeury, Tuckahoe, and beyond. The pantry, the preschool, neighbors in need — discipleship lived in the ordinary week.
Back-to-School Sunday
Melt Away the Sunday Scaries
Monday is the first day of classes, and many of us are already feeling the "Sunday scaries." You know that feeling; when summer is coming to an end, you have a pit in your stomach. We have a way to help with that, though: we're having Mister Softee serve us some ice cream to help us forget about our Sunday scares. We will also be blessing backpacks and covering our students and schools with prayer. Come on, there's no better way to kick off the school year than with a community.
We will see you at Welborne Church on Sunday at 10:00 am.
