Our 180th Anniversary
Sunday, October 11th, 2026

Did you know Methodism and Protestantism began in our Valley as well as in California in 1846? On October 11th, 2026, we celebrated our beginnings with the Hon. Mayor Lisa Gillmore who spoke about Santa Clara UMC's contributions to the City and State. Certificates of Acknowledgement were received from the Santa Clara United Methodist Retirement Foundation and the Cal-Nev Annual Conference's Committee on History & Archives. Above is a picture of the NSGW & NDGW dedicating an Anniversary plaque outside at our Bell Wall Garden. A great time was had by all!
