Compass Church is a United Methodist church at 521 Caruthers Ave in Cape Girardeau, MO 63701-5229. It is one of 75 churches in Cape Girardeau, and one of 2 United Methodist congregations in the city.

Our mission is to create space for more people to encounter the unconditional love of God.

At Compass, we strive to be a church where everyone is welcome at every level, and we mean it. Rather than telling people what to think, we want to foster a community where diverse perspectives are embraced. We are all worthy to come worship together, learn from each other, be in ministry together, be in communion together, and trust that we can have questions – every question. And through this, we hope to learn and grow to be all that God has created us to be.

Compass Church is part of the Methodist family of churches in The American Church Story. 428 congregations of the Methodist family gather across Missouri — 25,985 across the United States on The Church Map.

Methodism gave the church the class meeting, the circuit rider, and the Sunday school, and gave America the conviction that grace is genuinely for everyone — carried into prisons, mines, and mill towns by preachers who owned almost nothing. Charles Wesley's hymns are still sung in nearly every tradition, most of them by people who have no idea whose they are.
