Our People
Get to know the RUMC family
While we are one of the largest Methodist churches in the North Georgia conference, it is our goal to create and maintain a close-knit church community where everyone feels like family, rather than just a face in a crowd. Led by Dr. Tom Davis, Senior Pastor, the RUMC family includes eight clergy and a staff of 35+, in addition to the countless volunteers and supporters who help make RUMC a vibrant place of community and faith.
