A Message from Rev. Sherri Reynolds

Welcome to First United Methodist Church of Gadsden

I am thankful for all those engaged in the life of First United Methodist Church of Gadsden, including you. This church is more than a location at the corner of 5thStreet and Chestnut Street in Gadsden, Alabama. We are the body of Christ, rooted in Jesus and  the heart of the city to reach people with God’s love.
 
You will find opportunities for worship (5:30 pm on Thursday, 9:00 am, and 11:00 am on Sunday), learning, mission, and fellowship. You also will find spaces to serve the larger community and develop a deeper relationship with others and Jesus. The congregation is a welcoming place, reflecting the diversity of the Body of Christ and offering opportunities for all ages to grow in discipleship.
