Union Park United Methodist Church was organized by Swedish Methodists on November 29, 1874 and the services were originally held in Swedish. Today we still maintain some of the Swedish flavor with a membership representative from the diverse population of the Des Moines, Iowa area. The members are from the local area of Union Park as well as from other areas of Des Moines and the surrounding communities. This web site will introduce you to the staff, events, and programming available at Union Park United Methodist Church.

OUR BELIEFS
- We hold in common with all Christians a faith in the mystery of salvation in and through Jesus Christ.
- We believe that God's redemptive love is realized in human life by the activity of the Holy Spirit, both in personal experience and in the community of believers.
- We understand ourselves to be part of Christ's universal Church when by adoration, proclamation, and service we become conformed to Christ.
- We recognize that the reign of God is both a present and future reality.
- We share Christian communion.
- We declare the essential oneness of the Church in Christ Jesus.
WE ARE:
A covenant people,
a diverse community,
biblical in faith,
mission oriented,
socially conscious,
ecumenical,
involved,
connectional, and
evangelical.
The heart of United Methodism is
winning people to Christ.
