I'd like to tell
you what I find exciting about our Fellowship called First U.M.C.
First, and most
important, this is a place where people are eager to grow in their faith. Our
Fellowship is filled with people who love the Lord, who have a desire to know
and love him more, and who have heart-felt questions about their faith. There
is a sense of journeying here. We are a people who are on a life
adventure together.
And we are
companions together on the journey. First U.M.C. has a true sense of family.
We bear one another's burdens, share one another's joys, work
together to further God's Kingdom. We learn from one another. Together, we
are growing in faith.
One more thing -
we have a great time!
There is nothing
in the world that is more joyous than working together for God. So it follows
that church should be fun. At First U.M.C., we take joy in worship, in study,
in fellowship and in service at our community and our world.
I hope you
can join us on this journey - Pastor Greg

Scripture for February 5: "And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one. For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive others their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins." Matthew 6:12-15
