Founded in 1960 as Episcopal United Brethren, since 1968 this church has been known as United Methodist Church. It has a growing, multicultural congregation which is very community oriented. Regular Sunday worship is offered in three different formats:  traditional, contemporary and in the Mandarin language. The church has devoted its mission to faith-development and fellowship-building through groups, music, special events and community outreach. ESL classes and Mandarin classes are available.

The Good Samaritan Preschool is a vital part of the church's ministry and provides children, aged two to five, with hands-on developmental and age-appropriate programs. It aims to offer children the positive experiences and opportunities that excelerate learning and growth. Infant care is also available, full or part time. Daily, age-specific programs are part of the church's summer time programming.
