Welcome! Everywhere we turn we hear bad news. There is Good News here at First United Methodist Church. You are invited to experience God in a real way and hear the Good News that God loves you! Our church family has people of all ages meeting together all throughout the week for "school," worship, youth and children activities, praise band, children's choir and special studies.
Consider beginning each week with our Sunday morning radio program on WLOV 1370 AM at 9:00 A.M. Then feel welcome to come in person at 10:00 A.M. to experience Christian love and fellowship in Sunday School. In Sunday School you'll make new friends, study the Bible and learn how to better live your beliefs. For adults we have five different classes: Pharr Ficklen: a Men Only Class, Willing Workers, Faithful Messengers, Seekers and Shepherds. You are invited to come and see which group fits you best! Senior High Youth and Middle School Youth have their own classes where they meet new friends and learn how to dynamically following Jesus! Infants up to two years old are loved and cared for by our nursery staff. Children begin Sunday School in the 2 and 3 year old class with lessons, play and singing. Children 4-9/10 join together to sing, enjoy stories, make crafts and enjoy refreshments in our Children's Sunday School area called, God's Marketplace.
Our worship service begins at 11:15 and includes wonderful music, prayer and Biblical preaching. We sing a blend of traditional hymns, carols and choruses. Isn't it time you heard some Good News?
You can click on and see all of the other activities we have to make you feel part of a group whose heart-cry is to make a difference in our community and the world through loving God with all of our heart, mind, soul and strength and loving our neighbors as ourselves.
Don't let the Bad News on the TV drag you down. Come hear the Good News every Sunday. ALSO, at 6:15 every Wednesday night from September to April come enjoy a delicious catered dinner in our Fellowship Hall; starting in September we will have covered dish every first Wednesday of the month; sometimes there is a brief program to enjoy. You can visit with friends in the Fellowship Hall while your children enjoy special activities designed especially for them! Childcare is provided.
