What We Believe

Our church is connected to the United Methodist Church,  a 12.6 million member global church,  whose mission is “to make disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world.”   We share a common heritage with all Christians.  We seek to be rooted and grounded in the love of God,  and to be guided by the grace of God.  John Wesley and the early Methodists placed an emphasis not only on a personal faith, but also on Christian living – on putting faith and love into action.


There are so many opportunities to step onto a spiritual path that is just right for you.  Join a small group, exercise class, women's circle, men's Bible study, and more!  Serve on a team that does mission projects for our community including our clothes closet or soup kitchen (Ladle of Love). Or find out what's happening at First UMC Gadsden.  Follow the links below.
 The United Methodist Church recognizes two sacraments in which Christ himself participated: Baptism and the Lord's Supper.
