Welcome to Buncombe Street United Methodist Church

Through an offering of wonderful programs of mission and outreach we work to spread the Good News of Jesus Christ. We extend to you an invitation to worship with us on Sundays and Wednesdays. If you are looking for a church home, consider Buncombe Street as your house of worship.
