This class is a group of mostly older adults, but all ages are welcome. We have around 20 to 30 folks most Sundays with biblically supported lessons about how we as Christians live out our faith in today’s world. These lessons are given by a rotating group of teachers. We take an offering each week from which we give out funds to organizations and the church when worthy needs arise. We also tend to the needs of our shut-ins and those in our class who are temporarily homebound. We also like to have fun and usually have several social events throughout the year.

The children’s ministry

First Methodist focuses on nurturing the whole child in the faith journey. It serves infants through 5th grade, ensuring they learn the basics of the Christian faith in ways that support their overall development. Each age group encounters God’s love through age-appropriate relationships, experiences, choices, and scriptures, allowing children to develop their identity and spiritual being. We want each child to feel valued and supported in their growth. Contact our Children’s Pastor, Janice Wilson for more information.

The youth ministry

First Methodist is all about nurturing one’s spiritual growth as they navigate their adolescent years. Being a teenager can be challenging, and is often filled with lots of questions, including ones about faith! Our goal is to create healthy space for students to ask their questions, while also maintaining a foundation of biblical truth. We believe in the importance of church community, which is why our students gather weekly for prayer, worship, biblical teaching, games and fellowship. We believe in a God who loves His creation, it is our hope that every teenager will know and be known by the God who loves them more than they can imagine. Contact our Interim Youth Pastor, Rev. Cynthia Moss for more information.

Youth Sunday School starts at 9:15am in the Student Ministry Center (Boat House)
