Who we are

Welcome!

We extend a special welcome to you. If you are single, married, divorced, straight, gay, rich, dirt poor, you are welcome at Sweet UMC. We extend a special welcome if you are a crying newborn, are fit and healthy, could lose a few pounds, or have trouble hearing what most people are saying.

We welcome you if you can sing like an angel or croak like a frog. You are welcome if you are just looking because there is nothing better to do, or if you are searching for something more. We welcome you if you can quote John Wesley or are not sure who he is. We welcome you if you have never been in a church before, or haven’t been in a church since, well you can’t remember when.

We welcome you if you are getting up in age, but have never really grown up. We welcome teenagers who are growing up too fast. We welcome stay at home moms, career moms, NASCAR followers, tree huggers, latte-sippers, sports enthusiasts, hunters, people who fish, vegetarians, junk-food junkies. We welcome you if you are struggling to keep your head above water, struggle with addictions, or have your life together. We welcome you if you don’t like “organized religion” because we have been there too.

We welcome you if you are part of the flat earth society, haven’t taken a vacation in years, can’t spell, aren’t sure what a Methodist is, or are looking for a church because your grandmother is coming to town and wants to go to church.

We welcome you if you have tattoos, piercing, or both. We welcome you if you need a prayer, have had “religion” shoved down your throat, were part of a church but haven’t been in so long that “the building would fall down if I ever came back.” (We have a very strong building.) We welcome you if you are passing through, planning on staying, or just checking us out. We welcome doubters, seekers, lost and lonely, ultra conservatives, bleeding hearts…and (if you haven’t found yourself anywhere else in this list) we welcome you.

Sweet United Methodist Church History

The village of Sweet was a well established freight stop to the Thunder Mountain district and points north from Boise. In 1905, community leaders decided a church was needed and the Sweet Methodist Episcopal Church was born. The first pastor was J. M. Hixson, who also served the outlying communities of Montour, Ola and Horseshoe Bend. For over 100 years, this little country church has served the needs of local residents. The "addition" on the left side of the building was the old Boy Scout building moved to the church in 1975.

The painting which has graced the front of the sanctuary since about 1910 is entitled "Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane". It was painted for the church by Maude Selfors who lived in Sweet for a time. The church was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1997.

Members of the Sweet UMC participate in a variety of community activities, including the annual Holiday Craft Fair, Christmas live nativity scene and parade and their own annual Ice Cream Social - a community favorite!

Join us for bible study at 8:30 and services at 9:15.

The Sweet Methodist Episcopal Church, also known as Sweet United Methodist Church, is a historic church at 7200 Sweet-Ola Highway near Sweet, Idaho. The Late Gothic Revival style building was started in 1905 and was added to the National Register in 1997.

The power of Christian prayer My hidden sins
Here they are, Lord Jesus, my hidden sins. I bring them out of the secret chamber of my heart. I take them out of the darkness and expose them to Your light. Lord, You have promised You will execute Your word upon the earth, thoroughly and quickly. Oh God, thoroughly cleanse my heart; purify me quickly!
