God's Story of Love • Is Still Unfolding • There's a Place For You! • Upcoming Events • Building a Foundation for the Future • Adults • Care • Children Welcome to First United Methodist Church of Austin, an inclusive faith community of Christian believers in the heart of downtown at the corner of 12th Street and Lavaca. We may be older than the state of Texas, but God’s story is still unfolding in and through this community of faith. Join us as we blend ancient worship practices and progressive theology to build a community where all people are invited to know God’s love and sent to join God in transforming the world. We are in the midst of the Foundation for the Future capital campaign to eliminate debt on our Sanctuary's exterior restoration and complete key renovations to the Sanctuary's interior. Together, we are preserving this holy place as a spiritual home for generations to come. Adults grow in faith through learning, service, and meaningful community. Care ministries offer support, prayer, and connection in every season. Children explore God’s love through fun, faith-filled learning experiences. Preschool provides a nurturing, safe space for early childhood growth. Women gather to grow spiritually, build friendships, and serve others. Youth deepen their faith through fellowship, service, and discipleship. There’s always something happening at First Church! From worship services and community outreach to special gatherings and seasonal celebrations, our upcoming events are opportunities to grow in faith, connect with others, and make a difference. Check back often and join us—we’d love to see you there! [Google Places type: church]
