Kingwood UMC

Kingwood United Methodist Church was the first Methodist Church in Hunterdon County. Although it was founded in 1816, its roots to Methodism actually go back another 3 decades before that.

Frenchtown UMC

Frenchtown United Methodist Church has been a part of the Frenchtown community for over 175 years. Located at 16 Third Street, the church proudly seeks to build relationships within its community to welcome all people.

About the Pastor

Peter Mantell, a New Jersey native, spent over 30 years in the corporate world before deciding to pursue ministry. He continued to work in the corporate world, while earning his Bachelor’s degree, before fully transitioning into ministry.
