ABOUT COLBERT U.M.C.

Colbert United Methodist Church is dedicated to the glorification and worship of God. Our Pastor, James Haralson, was born and reared in a small town about an hour’s drive from the church. His warmth and humor radiates throughout his sermons as he gives insight to scripture and focus for Christians in modern society. The worship service and music is traditional. Colbert United Methodist Church puts importance on Christian learning through Sunday School and Bible Study during the week. There are many opportunities to join ministries within the church, which are always open to new members.

The Colbert United Methodist congregation is multi-generational. There are opportunities for all ages and life stages to become involved through study, outreach and fellowship.
The congregation is committed to outreach into the Colbert community, both on an individual basis and in groups of volunteers. On a monthly basis, volunteers plan and host Our Daily Bread for the needy at Oconee Street United Methodist Church in Athens, Georgia. There are many active ministries within Colbert U.M.C. that have annual fundraisers such as the United Methodist Women’s Christmas Bazaar in Colbert, and the United Methodist Men’s annual peanut sales. The proceeds from these fundraisers are used in different causes that benefit the community and exalt God.
