our story
A few words about us
Since 1836, Christ United Methodist Church has been a cornerstone of faith, resilience, and community in Olean, NY. Our history is not just a collection of dates and buildings but a testament to the unwavering devotion, perseverance, and spiritual growth of generations who came before us. Built upon the sacrifices and dedication of men and women of deep faith, our church stands today as a living record of God’s grace at work.
Our prayer… Oh that God would give me the thing which I long for! That before I go hence and am no more seen, I may see a people wholly devoted to God. A people truly given up to God in body, soul, and substance! How cheerfully would I then say, “now lettest thou thy servant depart in peace.” In the name of Jesus we pray – Amen.
~John Wesley
