Pentecost invites us into a new way of living. One where the fire and wind of the Holy Spirit move in our lives to send us where only God can lead. Let us be swept up in the movement of the Spirit, joining in what God is doing in the world around us! 🔥

From fishermen to world-changers! 🎣➡️🌍 The Holy Spirit wasn't just poured out on the 'qualified' - He chose ordinary people like tax collectors, women, children, and YES, people like us! Your background doesn't disqualify you from God's extraordinary purposes.

Today we remember and honor the men and women who gave their lives in service to our country. May we never forget their sacrifice and the freedoms we enjoy because of them. 🇺🇸

“Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.” — John 15:13

🔥 Join us this Sunday for Pentecost! 🔥

On the Day of Pentecost, the Holy Spirit filled ordinary people with extraordinary power, boldness, and hope — and God is still moving today.

Come worship with us as we celebrate the birth of the Church and the gift of the Holy Spirit.

📍 Sunday, May 24
🕘 9:00 AM
📖 Acts 2

There’s a place for you here. We’d love to worship with you!

Just like healthy families always make room at the dinner table, Jesus constantly made space for those society pushed away. The Kingdom of God doesn't grow through pressure or coercion, but through genuine invitation. 'Come see what God is doing!' 🪑✨

Yesterday, we talked about what it means to be people who are sent — not just gathered.

This week, we’re inviting our church into the BLESS challenge:
Begin with prayer.
Listen.
Eat.
Serve.
Share your story.

Not as another program.
Not to pressure people.
Just simple ways to love our neighbors well in the name of Jesus.

Who is one person you can intentionally bless this week?

We’re on Instagram 📲

If Facebook is where you see announcements, Instagram is where you’ll see the everyday life of our church.

Short encouragements. Real moments from Sundays. Honest reminders that faith isn’t meant to feel distant or complicated.

No pressure. No perfect language. Just a place to stay connected and maybe find something that speaks into your week.

👉 Follow us here: https://www.instagram.com/lexingtonfirstumc/

We’d love for this to be a space that feels helpful, honest, and actually worth your attention in the middle of a noisy feed.

This past Sunday we began a new series called Family on Mission.

We’re exploring what it really means to belong to God’s family—and how that shapes the way we live, love, and serve in everyday life.

If you weren’t able to be with us, we’d love to invite you to join us this Sunday.

No pressure. No need to have everything figured out. Just come as you are and be part of it with us.

And if you’ve been looking for a place to reconnect, this might be a good Sunday to start again.

Sundays @ 9 am | Lexington First UMC

We’d love to see you!
