Welcome
How can you be the church in these extraordinary times of health-related social distancing? Here at First United Methodist Church of Appleton we invite you to partner with us to find an answer to this question!
Please know that even though most of our staff is working from home these days, you can still call the church office during regular office hours and communicate with all staff via email and phone.
Much of our ministry is now taking place through online platforms. If you need help to connect or know of someone who does not have internet. Please contact the church office.
You will find links to worship services, classes and ministries under the Ways to be The Church heading. Let us be the church…

Ways to be The Church
Back to Church Plan
Dear First Church Family!
After much research, prayers, meeting and evaluating of our church survey, we are very excited to share with you the following game plan for in-person worship experiences:
Worship With Us
Watch our recorded weekly weekend worship service.
Watch the recording of our LIVE Wednesday Night Live Devotion!
Helping Each Other
First Church recognizes that many are in need during this time. In need of prayer, resources, food, etc. and many are in need of volunteering, and doing mission work. How can First Church help fulfill your needs? Please click below on the tab that best describes your situation.
Do you run or work for a small business that you’d like to promote? Please email us your information. We will be updating a list of businesses from people within our church that are still operating for their support.
Fellowship Opportunites
We are thrilled to offer time to sit and be with one another. Schedule a time with the office for you and your church friends to have fellowship in our courtyard or come and chat with Pastor Liz during some special dates! We want to make sure everyone remains safe, so we will be capping our fellowship time to 15 people.
Online Giving
You can make a one-time gift or set up regular giving through this link. Thank you for your support and helping us to be the church.

Gift of Prayer for Our Church
Praying for our Church
Our prayer ministry is entering its 3rd year with the same goal, to cover First Church in prayer. Each day in 2020 we want a member of our congregation praying for our pastors, staff, ministries, and members. We invite you to sign up to pray for our church.
