Missions

For as long as anyone can remember, First United Methodist Church of Lewisville has been involved in mission activity – Methodists take their charge seriously!

God's mission in the world is to redeem, restore, and reconcile all of creation.  God's hands and feet are ours.  FUMC believes it is a privilege to serve the human family and spread the Good News by loving neighbor, friend and stranger.

Help support our ongoing projects: MISSION POSSIBLE, Rummage Sale, and $2.00 Sunday!
