About
Our Vision
The vision of Main Street is to be an open, diverse and socially conscious congregation where we worship God in love and unity.
"After this I looked, and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and before the Lamb. They were wearing white robes and were holding palm branches in their hands."
Revelation 7:9(NIV)
Our Mission
We are seeking to achieve this vision through the mission of The United Methodist Church: "To make disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world." ¶120 The Book of Discipline of The United Methodist Church as well as through our personal mission to Love God, Share Faith, and Make Christlike Disciples. Both of these missions are scripturally based in the Great Commissioning
"Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely, I am with you always, to the very end of the age." Matthew 28:18-20 (NIV)
"But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth." Acts 1:8
Pastor Kate Biggs
Hello! My name is Pastor Kate Biggs and as of July 1, 2025 I am the pastor at Main Street UMC. To give you a little background on me, I was born in Bay City, Michigan. I spent my elementary and middle school years in Huntingburg, Indiana, high school years in Seymour, Indiana, and I attended Purdue University, where I majored in History and French. Before entering ministry I worked in the pharmaceutical industry, a traffic court, and a waste disposal company. I have been married to my husband, Ben, for nineteen years. He is also a United Methodist pastor, appointed to Cicero UMC. We have three children: Grace, Charlotte, and Carter. In my free time I love to read. I also like to play video games and work on many different craft projects that I have picked up over the years. In ministry, what excites me most is to see others deepen their faith in and relationship with Jesus Christ. Each of us has been called and gifted by the Holy Spirit to participate in God’s kingdom work in the world. The church’s role is to develop, nurture, and equip disciples of Jesus Christ so that they can be His hands and feet. If you have a question or prayer request, you can reach me through the "Contact Us" section.
