A Message from the Senior Pastor, Terry Shaughnessy Methodism was born in the midst of a deep longing to live life to the fullest. To share in that purpose, First United Methodist works hard to make sure that the worship of God is our primary task as people of faith. We bring our gifts to worship and share them before God. Adults and children participate in vocal choirs, handbell choirs, brass and instrumental ensembles, and thanks to the foresight of visionary disciples, we are enriched by the sounds of one of the finest pipe organs in this part of the country. Learning about Christ is the inevitable result of life giving worship. Each member is a learner, each member a teacher. Our Sunday School coordinators and teachers are highly committed to passing on our faith in a way that honors and cherishes each person as the very image and likeness of God. We believe God calls us to quality before He calls us to quantify any of our ministries. Our primary task is to be attentive to the quality of our relationships, and that means we are called to cultivate a good relationship with Jesus the Christ.
