Welcome!
“Have Faith. Speak Hope. Live Love.” That’s our motto. It is who we are and how we do life and ministry. No one should ever stand alone—it’s about coming together, growing, learning, and reaching back to help those on the same journey.
We exist in the Kingdom of God to help people become spiritual disciples who, in turn, practice their discipleship beyond the walls of our church.
We seek connection with God, one another, and with all people. We want to experience growth in our faith, our relationships, and in the depth of our discipleship. This results in service not only to our church, but also to our neighborhood, the community, and to the world.
There is something for the whole family at Lexington First Methodist, for every stage of life. We invite you to give us a try!
