What to Expect

You might be wondering, what's it really like at First UMC?

Simply stated, at First, we're all about Jesus.

Our church is made up of imperfect people with every kind of story imaginable.


Want to know the best part? No matter what you've been through or what questions you might have about God and faith, our church is a place where you'll find the love, grace, and forgiveness Jesus gives to everyone.


Sundays at First UMC are exciting, casual and relaxed.

Our services last about an hour.

We sing a few songs and listen to worship music.

Our pastor, James Bennington, will share an encouraging

and hope-filled message about Jesus.

What to Wear

Wear whatever makes you feel comfortable! We are casual. You don't have to dress up to fit in.
