| To make disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world. |
| Words of welcome from Pastor Ron Bellomy: I am pleased to have this opportunity to extend our warmest First United Methodist Church (FUMC) welcome. This webpage gives a glimpse of the ministries you will find at FUMC. However, there is no substitute for a personal visit. There are many reasons for visiting churches, but there seems to be a common thread in all of them. Most of us have had our fill of superficial, empty relationships. We are searching in earnest for genuine relationships with ourselves, each other and most importantly with God. At FUMC, we are striving to be faithful to our calling to reach out to all people while forming a Christ-led community of faith. We are not perfect, and we do not pretend to be. Our imperfections simply point to our need for the renewing, unearned love of God that we call “grace.” From this perspective, we can grow as disciples while becoming a transforming people of faith in action. We are beginning to see the miraculous future God has for us in this holy place, a future of hope. Please consider being part of the excitement. . . Pastor Ron Bellomy |
