Come join us Sunday mornings at 10:30am and Christmas Eve at 5pm for our Advent Worship series!

First UMC is offering several opportunities to worship this Advent and Christmas season. We will have our regular 10:30am worship on Sundays, plus a Blue Christmas service on the 21st, and our Candlelight Christmas Eve service. And join us on the 29th for Breakfast Church!

Sunday, December 8th, at 5pm we’ll have a handbell concert in our sanctuary, followed by a carol sing, and a potluck supper. All are welcome! Feel free to bring a dish or a dessert for all to share!

This Advent, the book An Unlikely Advent will inform our Sunday worship. Also, we’ll be running it as a weekly book study. If you’re interested, let Pastor Steve know. Here’s some information on the book:

Experience the unexpected this Christmas.

This Advent season join Rachel Billups and read through the themes of hope, love, joy, and peace by sharing the stories of Elizabeth and Zechariah, Herod, the Magi, and the shepherds. Each set of unexpected characters has something to teach about living faithfully on the journey to Christmas.
