Next Steps

Welcome to First United Methodist Church Fort Worth. No matter your background — whether this is your first time at church or you’ve been attending church your whole life — we’re glad you’re here!

Every Sunday, we come together to worship and celebrate the good news of the gospel that proclaims you are loved and accepted by Christ completely. We want First Church to be a place where no one walks alone so we want to make it super easy to take your first steps to get connected to others at FUMCFW.

Step 1

On Ramp

Sundays

If this is your first time with us, welcome — we’re glad you’re here! We want you to know church is so much more than a Sunday service — First Church is a place where you will never walk alone. We will be in the garden after the service — exit out the back of the Sanctuary, take a left and you will see the “On Ramp” sign in the garden. We have gifts for both children and adults as a token of our appreciation for you worshipping with us. We also invite you to stop by, grab a cup of coffee — we can’t wait to meet you!

Step 2

Healthy Plate Discipleship Breakfast

Sunday, June 5, 2022
9:30 – 10:30 am | Room 350 | Registration required

Step 3

Find your “Worship Plus One”

What does that mean? It simply means in addition to regular worship attendance, the easiest way to live into the Healthy Plate model of Discipleship is to find a “Plus One” — a group, a study or a place to serve where you will meet other people, build relationships and experience the power in leading a Christ-centered life. Here are some places for you to take that step and find your “Plus One.”

Bible Studies

Our Bible Studies are a comfortable place for everyone — whether it’s your first time to participate in a Bible Study or you’ve been to many. It’s the perfect opportunity to engage in practical conversation about how scripture is meaningful and relevant today.

Step 4

Pastries with the Pastors

August 28 and October 23, 2022

February 19 and April 16, 2023

Sundays | 9:30 – 10:30 am  | Room 350

10:35 – 10:45 | Joining Ceremony | Chapel
Registration required

This is the perfect opportunity to get to know others who are interested in membership and are looking to put down roots at First Church – but want to find out more. Join us for breakfast and the chance to ask some of our clergy and staff any questions about FUMCFW you may have. After a small break at 10:30, you will have the opportunity to formally join FUMCFW if you are ready to do so. What if you decide you aren’t ready to join? No worries – joining is optional.

Step 5

We encourage you to be faithful in your Sunday worship participation and to find your Plus One. Participation in a small group or service opportunity is a great way to begin.
