Each of us has a faith story, and no matter where you are right now on your spiritual journey, you are welcome at First UMC to discover how you are a part of God's story & how you can make a difference.  

Worship at First UMC

WELCOME, in the name of Jesus Christ, to First United Methodist Church! 

We invite you to join us for one of our many worship services, 

and to see if First UMC is a "fit" for you and your family.  

We hope that through visiting with us, you will experience

the hope, love and joy that comes from a

community of people who love Jesus.

Authentic Worship

At First UMC, worship is central to everything we do.  Through worship, we offer our praise and gratitude to God, and we learn and grow as Christians through singing, Scripture and prayer.  We offer many worship experiences throughout the week for you to experience God's presence.

Teaching from Scripture

As we study Scriptures as recorded in the Old and New Testaments, we remember God's Word spoken to God's people throughout all generations.  In addition to worship services, we offer many Bible studies and small groups that dig into Scripture passages to guide and to lead Christians today.
