We believe that all who confess Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior are justified before God and will be welcomed into his heavenly kingdom. We believe that Christians are called to do more than just confess Jesus Christ, we are called to live lives of gratitude and love. As members of First, we are called to serve Christ through First with our presence, our prayers, our gifts, our service and our witness.

The United Methodist Church recognizes two sacraments in which Christ himself participated: baptism and the Lord’s Supper (also called Holy Communion, Eucharist). All who love Christ, earnestly repent of their sin and seek to live in peace with one another are invited to join us in offering our prayer of thanksgiving and receive the body and blood of Christ.

Therefore go and make disciples of all nations… teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you.
