When does Worship Service start? 10:45am
What is Worship Service like? First UMC offers a Traditional Worship Service with liturgy, hymns, responsive readings, and a chancel choir. Never been to a traditonal service? That's ok! Participate how you feel comfortable and just follow the words on the screens.
Where do I park? There are designated parking spots for visitors on the North side of the building in front of our main office entrance facing Rymer Road.
What do I wear? Come as you are, jeans and a t-shirt to Sunday best.
What about my kids? On Sunday mornings we have a nursery for ages 0-4 and JAM (Jesus And Me) Children's Church for Kindergarten-5th grade. Both meet in the Christian Life Center.
On First Family Sundays - the first Sunday of each month - Children sit in the Sanctuary for Worship Service & Holy Communion. Be sure to pick up an activity packet in the Narthex for each child.
First Youth meets in the Christan Life Center on Sunday evenings from 5pm-7pm. All students 6th-12th grades are welcome.
When is Communion? We partake in Holy Communion the first Sunday of every month. Our table is open and all are welcome.
How can I get connected? View the Ministries page or call the church office for more information.
Is your building accessible? All doors on our campus are ground level and the church office door is automatic. The sanctuary can be accessed through multiple double doors and all aisles are large enough for wheelchairs and/or walkers. The restrooms in the Christian Life Center have wheelchair accessible stalls. Large print Sunday bulletins are available on request. The Sunday bulletin can also be found online here by the previous Thursday evening.
Please call the church office with any concerns and we will be happy to answer any questions.
