We are thrilled you have taken a moment to check out First United Methodist Church of Celina, Texas. We hope you discover that hope is not just a catch phrase with the First Family, it's how we see tomorrow. We are a congregation that believes you were created in the image of God, born for greatness and meant for heaven.

At First UMC - Celina we want you to...

BELIEVE in a God who is bigger than all of our arguments about beliefs, doctrines or creeds.
 
BELIEVE in a God who is bigger than any one church, denomination or faith.
 
BELIEVE in a God who is bigger than anything we may have done in our lives, good or bad.
 
BELONG to a church that believes you were designed and designated for greatness!
 
BELONG to a church that believes you have what it takes to be a world-changer!
 
BE GREAT by being involved in changing the world! We believe that God wants good for all of creation... not just First United Methodist Church of Celina or even the United Methodist Church at large, but everyone. We believe that our church is being called by God to partner with God and other places of faith to bring about God's vision for creation.

We believe that what we do and who we are Monday through Saturday is just as important as who we are and what we do on Sunday mornings, if not more. We are a church that is just crazy enough to believe that devoted and passionate people following the message and life of Jesus Christ can do what the Bible says we can do... change the world with love.
 
If you want to be part of a church that believes there is more to life than what you get, but that it is far more about what you give, then I invite and encourage you to come BELIEVE, BELONG, and BE GREAT by being a part of the family at First UMC - Celina, a faith community that is changing the world through missions!

Grace and peace in Christ Jesus!
