Crafton United Methodist Church is located in the Western end of Pittsburgh, in historic Crafton. A church with a heritage reaching back to the founding days of Crafton itself, CUMC was founded in 1883 and has grown and flourished with the community, and now seeks to help people meet the demands of life in the 21st century. We believe that life is a gift from God, and a sacred trust of ours. We also believe that a life lived closer to God is the best expression that any life can have. Faith and trust in Jesus Christ as our brother and Savior is the foundation of our life together, and motivates us to serve God and our community.

The Ambassadors are the Social group for adults in the church. They have hosted murder mystery evenings, international food nights, a Game night and also coordinate the Family Retreat held every year.
