Bless The Future
Bless The Future is our inspiration and motivation for building a new sanctuary for our Community United Methodist Church in Port Hadlock. Our architect who art in heaven has laid out the blue print. Disciple crews have penciled through designs. Followers have met to tick off the time lines and set the schedule. The site is prepared and seeds are ready for planting.The need is established. The mission is set. The faithful stand ready.
You are a blessing. Go out and bless the world.
You are invited to share your blessings in the form of a donation to the inspired cause of "Blessing The Future". Your donation will help rain down water on the seeds being planted in this field of dreams in order to multiply the bounty and enrich others with blessings, not only for their future, but for your future as well.
As our General Contractor says, whatsoever you build together in my name on earth, will be bonded in heaven for all eternity.
Your donation of any amount you choose will help new seeds germinate and help young plants grow. May God's blessings be upon you for your blessings onto others.

Church History
A Brief History of Community United Methodist Church of Port Hadlock ("CUMC")
What is now Community United Methodist Church ("CUMC") started as two churches: the Chimacum Methodist Episcopal Church (1892- 19 members) and the Hadlock Methodist Episcopal Church ( 1893 - 25 members).
In 1955 the two churches reincorporated as Community Methodist Church of Chimacum and Port Hadlock. In 1956, the Womens Society of Christian Concern of both churches combined, and in 1958 the current 15 acre site halfway between Chimacum and Port Hadlock was purchased.
The churches were pastored by mobile ministers (circuit riders) whose district included Blyn, Irondale, Chimacum, and Hadlock. In spring of 1959, what is now the education wing was started; it was completed and consecrated in 1962.
The first “sanctuary” was in our current Room H. In late 1962, the two congregations combined and in 1963 the first pastor was appointed. The current sanctuary was dedicated in 1980, and a centennial was observed on July 26, 1992.
An exciting new chapter in CUMC’s history began in January 2005 with the groundbreaking for the “South Seven Village,” a low cost housing development for seniors (phase 1) and the disabled and families (subsequent phases). An open house for the first 15 units was held on March 5, 2006 and move in of the first qualified seniors is expected in early April 2006.
Questions regarding availability of the South Seven units should be addressed to its administrator, Olympic Community Action Programs ("Olycap") of Jefferson County at 385-2571).
