This Wednesday! Come join us! Camp is so important to our youth. It not only helps them grow as Christians, but also strengthens their friendships and relationships with each other. They aren't allowed to have their devices all week, so they're out in the great outdoors that God has given each of us, not distracted by the computer in their hand. It's quiet, but fun! I hope you'll come and support this great cause!

Come join us for a BBQ Baked Potato Fundraiser for our kids to go to camp and our yearly Mission Trip. Each plate is $12 and includes a Baked Potato with all kinds of toppings, as well as a dessert and drink! Our kids are so excited to go out to learn in the world and then use that knowledge to be the hands and feet of Jesus. Please help them by supporting their fundraising efforts!
If you can't make the event and want to contribute, please click on the link below and label your donation as Youth or text the word YOUTH to 73256 and it will go directly towards these activities!

Our History

First United Methodist Church enjoys a rich heritage dating back to 1881 when the first church congregation officially organized. Regarded as the second church of any denomination to be organized in Abilene, FUMC began construction of the city's first church building in 1882 and completed the project in 1883. Prior to that time, members assembled in worship tents and, later, a schoolhouse on North 3rd and Cedar. Over the years, FUMC witnessed the establishment of a second sanctuary in 1890, a third in 1925, and the fourth, and most current, sanctuary in 1965.

In 2005-2006, First United Methodist built its Ministry Activity Center (MAC) as a multi-purpose facility for Sunday school classes, children's activities, and general fellowship opportunities. In 2008, FUMC also celebrated its official 125th anniversary.
