One Person at a Time
No matter what brought you here today, no matter your life circumstances, you are welcome at Washington First United Methodist Church. We are a warm, friendly, caring family of believers striving to be –– and make –– disciples of Jesus Christ that we may all enjoy true abundant life now and eternally. We love God the Father, God the Son who is Jesus Christ, and we trust the Holy Spirit of God to light our path. We invite you to join with us and, together, we can transform the world –– one person at a time. It's something this church has been doing since 1787.
Our church website provides a good overview of our church family, but here are a few more tidbits about what to expect....
Our church website provides a good overview of our church family, but here are a few more tidbits about what to expect....
Worship Service -- What to Expect: Our Sunday worship services blend traditional and contemporary. Music is an important part of our worship experience, and we guarantee your heart will be inspired by the anthems performed by our choir. Instrumentally, we have a pianist and organist. We sing contemporary praise songs as well as traditional hymns. Holy Communion is offered to all the first Sunday of each month. Ushers will provide you with the day's bulletin and order of service. Please feel free to sit anywhere....the front row is usually available!
Small Groups: This phrase encompasses our Sunday School classes and various study programs. It also refers to small groups of individuals who, together, provide guidance, support, and advice designed to encourage each other in our faith journeys.
Dress Code: You can expect to see everything from shorts to three-piece suits. Mostly, we're pretty casual in attire. About the only rule is: no shoes, no shirt, no service.
Got Kids?
- Babies: We provide a nursery on Sundays from 9:30 a.m. until after the worship service. The nursery is also offered during other special events. Call the church office at 706-678-7116 for specifics.
- For children in grades 1-5 / K4-K5 Sunday School is offered from 9:45 - 10:45 a.m. More info.
- Youth: We have a vibrant and growing youth component (middle and high school age) at Washington First United Methodist. Activities range from small group programs, outings, sports, skits, and and community service projects. More info.
