At First United Methodist Church, we believe it’s important to be intentional about growing in faith. Take a look at the many opportunities and resources to take your next step, volunteer, or participate in social events to share, learn, and grow together.

Discovery Hour.

Every Sunday between the 9 and 11 a.m. services, we set aside time for small groups to gather and study the word. If you’re familiar with the term “Sunday School” … this is it. Classes range from kids to teens, and adults as well. Check the Newsletter for more information on weekly meetings.
