FAQs
Q: What should we wear?
A: At our Sunday gatherings you will see everything from jeans to suits. Most come casually dressed. It's up to you!
Q: Will I be asked to give money?
A: At Burlingame United Methodist Church we never ask our guests to give anything... simply enjoy the worship and teaching that is offered as a gift from our family to you. Of course you can make an offering if you wish, but none will ever be expected. That is the responsibility of our members and regular attenders.
