This is a gathering where people new to First Church learn more about Methodism, the history and ministries of First Church and community called First Church. Anyone who is interested in learning more about these matters are invited to attend. If you are interested in membership, please attend this gathering.

Greeters are friendly and welcoming people who greet people at entrances. They offer God’s welcome and hospitality as people walk through the entrances. They are the first point of contact for many on Sunday mornings.

Ushers are essential to the worship experience, from the initial welcome of worshippers to the collection of the offering, answering questions, and helping to make the service a meaningful experience for all. Their warm greetings and friendly smiles let members and visitors know that First church is a welcoming place for all people.
