Are You a First-Time Guest?

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. 

Nursery and Childcare

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.

Review us on Google and Facebook!

Reviews tell those interested in our church more about our weekly rhythms, what to expect when they walk through our doors, and also let Google and Facebook's systems know that our church is alive and active. If you feel led, we invite you to review us on Facebook and Google to help spread the word about what God is doing in and through First Methodist!
