Our unique roof is an icon in the community, and represents Praying Hands. The sanctuary is just that, an incredibly beautiful, sacred space filled with stained glass windows and a tall, curved wooden ceiling, lending itself as a place of prayer. The Fireside Room down the hallway (just past the restroom) is perfect for small gatherings and includes a small kitchen with a refrigerator. There is also a room with sofas for Bible studies, named “The Jesus Loves Me Room.”
The Thornton Heights UMC is on the South Portland bus route with a bus stop right on the church property at Landry Village. There is also a covered drop-off area and large parking lot.
Many community groups use space at the church during the week, including an Assemblies of God congregation, a piano studio, several AA groups, Toastmasters, TOPs and a Parkinson’s Support Group. If you are interested in rental space, please contact the church office.
The church and daycare recently purchased a van. This is used to pick up kids from school, and for special church events.
