Coming in July!  Our 'Summer Read' Series featuring The Shack by William P. Young.  Go to our Worship page for more information.  If you miss a week in July with us, you can still hear the Sunday Message on our messages archive page.

First United Methodist Church- is one of the most vital and energetic churches in Laramie, with a membership over 400 and weekly worship attendance of approximately 200.  During this school year, we offer two distinctly different worship styles: a traditional worship experience  and a contemporary / praise service  - both in our unique sanctuary.  This summer we have just one early service at 9:00 a.m. so you can come worship and then enjoy the rest of your weekend.  Whether you prefer time-honored worship forms or energetic and upbeat music, First UMC has something for everyone!

Our children's Sunday School is second to none, with graded classes at each Sunday between Labor Day and Memorial Day.  During the summer, we have a Children's Church program for the kids to participate in following the children's message in worship.  This Fall we will beginning a new and exciting rotation model for Sunday School where our children will experience the same Bible story in several different ways over 4 to 5 weeks.  The rotation model has been very successful in many churches and we are excited to bring it to our congregation.

We also have social activities for families with Movie Night twice each year, a Halloween carnival with proceeds going to UNICEF, and a Christmas program.  Movie Night features a new release shown on a big screen in our fellowship hall, preceded by a pot-luck dinner!  Kids are welcome to bring sleeping bags, PJs, etc ... and camp out on the floor (covered by carpet!) as they enjoy the family appropriate movie.

The people of First UMC invite you to sample the many ways that Christ is reaching out to the people of Laramie through this unique outpost of God's Grace.  For 140 years the people of First UMC have served Jesus Christ with hands, feet, heart, and soul!  There is a place for you at First UMC!

First UMC is located at 1215 Gibbon St. between Gibbon and Harney, approximately two blocks west of 15th St.  Childcare by paid, trained adults is provided for all worship services, studies, and fellowship events.
