First United Methodist
Church of Dallas welcomes you to the joy of our fellowship. We
believe you will find a friendly congregation in which you can
worship and serve with meaning.
FUMC is large enough to have a broad
program of ministry for all ages, but no one gets lost in the
shuffle.
Everyone can participate and have a part in the total
life of the church. Our spirit is warm and our morale is high.
Both the experience and the expression of God's love are real to
us. We extend to you a cordial invitation to visit with us, find
your place of service and let this church be your spiritual home.
At the conclusion of each worship service, there
is an open invitation to be received into membership. The minister
will ask about your prior church affiliation, if any, and about
your Christian baptism. Anyone who desires to follow the teachings
of Jesus, is baptized and desires to support the United Methodist
Church and this congregation is welcome to join. Many people who
have not been baptized request this sacrament at the same time
they join the church.
Jesus Christ is the center of all that we
are as a church, all that we believe and do as Christians. Methodism
began with the desire of John Wesley to reform the Church of
England in the mid-eighteenth century. Though the denomination
did not organize churches until after his death, John Wesley laid
the foundation for a balanced and sensible way of following Christ
to incorporating scripture, reason, tradition and experience. For
more information on the history and organization of the United
Methodist Church, visit www.umc.org the official website of the
denomination, or attend one of our Meet the
Methodists session.
The remaining sessions for 2008 are February 17 & 24, April 20 & 27, August 24 & 31, October 19 & 26 and December 7 & 14.
