Methodist Church

Be part of something BIG!

Mission is more than what we do at FUMC...it's who we are! The body of Christ doing the work of Christ in God's world. What's your mission?

The core of mission at FUMC is to help people discover their unique God-given spiritual gifts, discern where Christ is calling them to be, and sending them out into the world to accomplish God's plan for their lives.

Rather than recruiting people to serve on committees and focus primarily on tasks, our goal is to create an environment where disciples of Christ can connect with their own passions for mission. We offer regular spiritual gifts classes, bible studies and affinity-based small groups to help you find where God is calling you.

Our spiritual gifts class currently meeats on Sundays at 10am (during the Sunday School hour) in the church Conference Room. Everyone is welcome to attend. Everyone who completes the class will have the opportunity to meet with a member of our Program Ministries team in order to help you asses where & how God is calling you to use your gifts, passions & talents.

Contact the church office to sign up for our next spiritual gifts class, or click here to fill out an easy online spiritual gifts assessment to get started.
