At Westbury UMC, we are committed to our neighbor and our community.
At this time, love means slowing the spread of the COVID-19 virus, and to do our part we are canceling all in-person events, groups, and worship services until further notice. We remain committed to our mission to make disciples of Jesus Christ to transform our community and world through God’s love. We can still do that, it will just look a bit different.

Our Sunday worship services will be held online through our church Youtube channel. You can find a list of services through our Sermons page.
