As people who are open to the call of Christ, We reaffirm our mission as a caring community Ministering to all, including those who are sick, in poverty, In confusion and in bondage. 

We are dedicated to proclaiming the Gospel By word, deed, and prayer, providing Christian education for all, opportunity for fellowship, witness to the community, and outreach to the world. 

We seek God's strength for these tasks of love, and we are able, through Christ, to love with the inspiration and guidance of the Holy Spirit. 

200 Years of Ministry When Richard and Benjamin Goodwin settled on what is now Taughannock Park in 1795, they joined with their neighbors to form a Methodist class, as was the custom. A church was born. Membership grew and in 1826, land for a church building was purchased for $100. In 1856, a bell was purchased and, forty years later, was brought with the congregation to the new church, dedicated in 1898. The bell still invites the congregation to worship each Sunday. In 1995, the church celebrated 200 years of continuous worship, service and fellowship.
