Dr. Jenn Pick\nRegistration Requested\nA garden. A flood. A tower. Long lists of names. Genesis opens with eleven chapters that happen before anything we would call history\, and they are stranger than most of us were taught. \nNobody eats an apple. Nobody loses a rib. There are two creation accounts\, and they do not agree with each other\, and the flood gets told twice by two different hands. None of that is a problem to fix. It is a clue about who was writing\, when\, and what they needed these stories to do. \nWe will read slowly and out loud. We will also ask what later readers have laid on top of these chapters\, because those readings still shape who gets blamed\, who gets welcomed\, and who gets to lead. \nGeared toward Eleven:Eleven folks who are ready for deep conversation. If you have never cracked open a Bible in your life\, you are not behind. Bring your questions. \nNo homework. Bring a Bible\, and if you do not have one\, we will put one in your hands. \nContacts: Kagan & Jenn \n  \nRegister\n\n\n \n \n \n "*" indicates required fields \n \n Δ\n \n \n\n \n Name*\n \n \n \n First\n \n \n \n \n Last\n \n \n Phone*Email*\n \n Do you need a Bible?*\n \n \n Yes\n \n \n \n No\n CAPTCHA\n Submit URL:https://fumcfw.org/event/beginnings26/2026-10-27/ LOCATION:Library 147 ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://fumcfw.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/In-the-Beginnings-1111-Bible-Study_EV.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20261028 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20261029 DTSTAMP:20241101T172536Z CREATED:20221020T153035Z LAST-MODIFIED:20241101T172536Z UID:10032712-1793145600-1793231999@fumcfw.org SUMMARY:Dementia Friendly Fort Worth Events DESCRIPTION:Dementia Friendly Fort Worth collaborates with our community to CARE through Connection\, Activities\, Resources and Education.

By giving of our time\, our talents\, and our gifts\, we show by example what it means to “go out and be God’s people in the world\,” and in so doing\, we enrich the lives of those we serve — even as our own lives are enriched by the experience of connecting with God and one another through our gifts and our service. The many ministries of First United Methodist Church of Fort Worth offer a wide array of opportunities to become part of this exciting\, dynamic and impactful community of service. \nServe in the Sanctuary     Serve in Welcoming Ministry      Other Opportunities to Serve URL:https://fumcfw.org/event/serve23/2026-11-01/ LOCATION:FUMCFW ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://fumcfw.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/Serve-First_EV.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20261101 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20261201 DTSTAMP:20260130T150856Z CREATED:20241230T144041Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260130T150856Z UID:10033327-1793491200-1796083199@fumcfw.org SUMMARY:November Mission Sundays: Blankets DESCRIPTION:Please bring blankets to First Street Methodist Mission\nMonday – Thursday | 8:00 am – 4:00 pm\nOR the donation bins at the East\, West & Garden entrances | Sunday mornings\nContact: Elizabeth Becker \n  \n  URL:https://fumcfw.org/event/mission-nov26/ LOCATION:First Street Methodist Mission\, 801 West 1st Street\, Fort Worth\, TX\, 76102\, United States ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://fumcfw.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/November-Mission-Sundays24_EV.jpg GEO:32.7535064;-97.3378572 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=First Street Methodist Mission 801 West 1st Street Fort Worth TX 76102 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=801 West 1st Street:geo:-97.3378572,32.7535064 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20261101T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20261101T120000 DTSTAMP:20261015T135153Z CREATED:20261014T204150Z LAST-MODIFIED:20261015T135153Z UID:10037216-1793523600-1793534400@fumcfw.org SUMMARY:Angel Tree DESCRIPTION:Sundays\, November 1 – December 6\, 2026\n9:00 am – 12:00 pm\nWesley Hall\nKids Hope USA and SERVE First UMC FW is excited to share with T.

Once enrolled in Academy classes\, children will stay in the same rooms with the same teachers all semester. Some classes are designed for younger elementary and some for older elementary. 5th Grade has its own class\, called High Five. While the subject areas are varied\, each class will work from the same Bible story and memory verse each month. \n  \nContact: Megan Ladd \n Class Descriptions\n  \n\nPlay Together\, Pray Together | K – 1st\nPlay is the work of childhood. Play is how children make sense of the world and their place in it. Children will explore the great stories and ideas of our faith through play. They won’t just build with Legos\, but with GIANT Legos. They’ll play GIANT Bible board games where the children themselves are the game pieces. Ten Commandments Hopscotch\, model train layouts of Bible stories\, and so much more. \nThreadbare Puppet Studio | K – 1st\nOur church has a national reputation for our innovative use of puppetry — from shadow puppets to giant processional puppets\, to the beloved Wendell and Lorraine. Children build different kinds of puppets out of household objects\, and even put on puppet shows. \nMad Scientists | K – 2nd\nIs your child fascinated with how things work? It doesn’t get much more hands-on than Mad Scientists\, where children explore the wonder of God’s world through numerous fun experiments\, writing in their log books (prayer journals)\, and even taking care of live animals and plants. \nCreation Care | K – 2nd\nChildren explore the values of care\, kindness\, gentleness\, and responsibility as they take care of several classroom plants and animals. The class helps reinforce the important role children play in caring for God’s world and for one another. \nDig In | 2nd – 4th\nThis room is a real dig site! Children search for scripture tablets and Bible artifacts. They scour the entire Children’s Wing for hidden code breakers and clues. No two weeks are alike in Dig In. It’s Indiana Jones-meets-Sunday morning. \nFaith In Action | 2nd – 4th\nWe’re bringing back an old favorite. In Faith in Action children take the stage to play improv and theatre games\, put on costumes to act out Bible stories\, and use instruments to create a Bible story “radio show.” The children become a part of the story! \nWorkshop of Wonders (W.O.W.) | 2nd – 4th\nThis class is part Sunday School\, part Children’s Museum. There are times when the whole group will sit together to experience a Bible story\, a prayer\, and a devotion based on one of the Workshop of Wonders activities. And there will be plenty of time for children to explore what they choose to at their own pace. They can build ramps and marble runs\, experiment at the Light Laboratory\, see what can fly at the Flight Lab\, and much more. \nVisual Arts | 2nd – 4th\nChildren paint\, sculpt\, mold\, and build. Their work is featured throughout the Children’s Wing as well as in worship. This is no mere “Sunday School craft class.” These kids make art! \nTherapy Dogs | 3rd – 4th\nA hit since they first joined us\, our therapy dog teams are back! Children work with trainers and real therapy dogs each week. This class explores some of the many ways therapy dog teams exhibit the Christian traits — love\, peace\, patience\, kindness\, forgiveness\, acceptance — we all should have. Because we have actual live dogs in this class\, a requirement is that your child not be allergic to dogs. \nHigh Five | 5th\nALL our Fifth Graders have their own class. They explore their faith through Testament\, our creative journaling\, and holy conversation curriculum. They also have time to hang out with friends in a cool environment that they get to help design. This class is like Pre-Youth — loads of content\, loads of fun. \n\n \n  \nRegister\n\n \n \n \n "*" indicates required fields \n \n Δ\n \n \n\n \n Child's Last Name*Child's First Name*Child's Grade (2026-2027)*Choose OneKindergarten1st grade2nd Grade3rd grade4th grade5th gradeChild's First Choice*Choose OneThreadbare Puppet Studio | K – 1stDig In | 2nd - 4thFaith in Action | 2nd - 4thPlease consider each opportunity and choose carefully — we want you to stick with your choice the entire semester!Child's Second Choice*Choose OneThreadbare Puppet Studio | K – 1stDig In | 2nd - 4thFaith in Action | 2nd - 4thWe will do everything we can to honor each child's first choice.
