Tuckaleechee United Methodist Church hosts people from all over the world, especially during the summer months when there are people coming from all over the world to visit the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. We welcome you to come as you are, drop in, and experience the warmth that the family of God offers to you!
Tuckaleechee UMC offers hope to people around the world. We have supported missions close to home through Second Harvest Food distributions, benevolence support for those in need of relief, Alcoholics Anonymous, Bible studies, and the Walk to Emmaus program. In addition, Tuckaleechee UMC offers a group called “Temple Keepers” which helps people who wish to be supported and held accountable on their way to healthier living in their spirit, mind, and body.
We have also supported the Holston United Methodist Home for Children in Greeneville, Tennessee, which offers homes to children who otherwise might not have stable homes. We have supported missions in Latvia, Liberia, Zimbabwe, South Sudan, and other parts of the United States.
Tuckaleechee United Methodist Church is part of the Holston Conference of the United Methodist Church.
