ABOUT US
 
In the early 1950's, a housing and population boom hit the Donelson community. 
Donelson Heights UMC began with a dream and within that
dream lay a spiritual challenge, as expressed by our founders:
 
The Spiritual Challenge 
     With the hundreds of new homes and families in each sub-division there is an increased need for reaching and winning to Christ the families of this community.  The need for new schools offers us the opportunity for Church Schools to meet the spiritual needs of the children of this area.  As the area and number of children increase, so the challenge increases.  We are moving to meet that need.  God calls!  We must answer!
 
Our Answer
     Our answer to this problem is the establishment of the Donelson Heights Methodist Church and the construction of its Church Building at Fairway and Selma Streets.  Plans are completed for the construction of the unit known as Fellowship Hall.  The first unit will have ample room on the first floor level for a sanctuary and four classrooms.  The Ground floor level will include the Fellowship Hall, kitchen, and classrooms.  This will be our answer to an ever-increasing problem:  the spiritual growth of our people.
 
The Donelson Heights Methodist Church will not complete its full mission until it has a Church building of its own.

FOUNDING SUNDAY

~~~~~~~~

Donelson Heights United Methodist Church continues to be a vibrant part of
the Donelson community.  And how we've grown!  What started as a single Chapel with a Fellowship Hall
has blossomed into our current facility with a Sanctuary, additional wings for Sunday School classes,
and the Early Childhood Program. 

Our activities range from the Annual Men's Fish Fry which brings in hundreds of people, to our Bible studies, Wednesday night programs, Book Discussions, and our Vacation Bible School. 
We are always striving to continue what our founders started.
