First United Methodist Church believes that all children are a special blessing from God and should be nurtured in an enriching, God-centered environment. Our program exposes children to Biblical truths while embracing each child in his/her uniqueness. We consider it a privilege to work with the families of each of these children -- ages infant through 6th grade -- and strive to provide support and encouragement to them as together we prepare them to accept Jesus Christ as their savior, teacher and life-long friend.

First United Methodist Church recognizes how important the middle and high school years are. They are a time of challenge, change, fun, and confusion as our youth investigate who they are in the Lord. FUMC Youth Group helps teens on that journey of self-discovery. Our youth are vibrant members of the church community.
"Our hearts, our minds and our doors are always open."
