Mulder Church helps people to connect with God through friendship with Jesus Christ, grow in that relationship, and serve others in the Spirit of Jesus.

As a Global Methodist congregation, we share a mission of making disciples of Jesus Christ who worship passionately, love extravagantly, and witness boldly.

Our History

We believe that we connect with God, grow in Christ, and serve others best when we share life together in Christian community.


Mulder Church began in an old school building on Redland Road in the late 1930’s. The church was organized by a group of members from the China Grove Methodist Church after it had burned and was disbanded. Members donated land, lumber, and their time to build the original structure, some of which still stands today. At one time in our history, the participation dropped to five active members. In the 1970’s the church began to grow reflecting the growth in the surrounding area. In 1984, the sanctuary was remodeled and Sunday School rooms and a fellowship hall were added. In 2000, our congregation consecrated another addition that included a multi-purpose room, Sunday School classrooms, and kitchen facilities. The church built the SonShine Playground in 2004 and it is open for the community’s enjoyment seven days a week. In 2008, we completed a facilities expansion effort that includes a 300+ seat worship center, office suite, classrooms, remodeled youth area, and increased parking capacity. The ballfields and walking trails of PromiseLand Park were constructed in 2012.
