If this is your first time here, we have a gift for you! Visit the welcome table in the foyer, and a member of our Guest Connections Team (they’ll be wearing a white name tag) will happily assist you.
Our nursery is available for infants to pre-k students. We believe in family worship, so your kids are welcome to stay in the worship service with you. We have a time for children during worship where kids are invited to come forward to hear from our children’s ministry team. If your children are joining you in worship, we offer “wiggle bags” filled with activities for your children to do during worship. Wiggle bags may be found in the back of the sanctuary.
After serving the youth ministries at both of our campuses, as the Amarillo campus' Ministry Coordinator, and directing some of Camp Nova's most well-attended camps, Kayla Irlbeck has made the prayerful decision to step down from the church staff. A celebration (including a light lunch) will be held in her honor today at noon at the Amarillo campus.
Join other FMC women in Frisco October 23-25 for speakers like Lysa TerKeurst, Priscilla Shirer, and Tara-Leigh Cobble, comedy with JJ Barrows, and worship with Big Daddy Weave. Participants are responsible for their own ticket ($139, less than 100 remaining, available online at womenofjoy.org), meals, and transportation (carpooling encouraged). First Methodist will provide lodging for the first 10 women to sign up.
Please email Marcie Williams with your name, email, and phone number by tomorrow, August 10, to let us know you're attending.
Want to bless a Canyon Intermediate teacher or staff member throughout the school year by providing them with a small gift each month? Sign-ups are now available at the welcome desk.
