Pasifika
A United Methodist Community, is a collection of people from the Pacific Islands working together to create a space where culture and people thrive. Located in Las Vegas, we are dedicated to uplifting our community while honoring and celebrating our Pacific Island heritage.
Pasifika is a communal asset to bridge the Pasific Islander diaspora with the larger Southern Nevada community.
Pasifika United Methodist Community embodies the vibrant spirit of the Pacific Islander diaspora in Southern Nevada, known as the 'Ninth Island.'
Our center is a sanctuary for fellowship, cultural heritage, and spiritual growth, uniting three fellowships under one roof.
Discover a community where every individual's journey is valued and every moment is an opportunity to grow together in faith and love.
