People come to worship at our church wearing a wide range of clothing styles. The simple answer is: Wear what you are comfortable to worship in.  We are less concerned about what you wear in worship than about what you experience while you are with us.

We have limited mobility in the front and Chapel side of the building. There is extensive parking on the Chapel side as well as along the side of the church on Alcovy St.

Our Children's Ministry & Nursery Teams are available as you walk through the doors and are ready to receive your family!

If you need access to the elevator for anyone with limited mobility, a staff member will guide you to the elevator located in the education wing of the building.

Connect Praise and Worship

We join together in a worship of praise and celebration with a unique emphasis on contemporary Christian Praise music, powerful prayer, and the Word. This worship service is highlighted by our anointed Praise Team, led by Pete McReynolds, while Pastor John and Pastor Wes bring the relevant and living Word of God. Please join us in this joy-filled and relaxed environment and prepare to be blessed by God’s Holy Spirit!

Traditional Worship
Sanctuary - 11am

Monroe First Methodist Church offers this traditional worship service complete with crucifers, acolytes, liturgical readings and congregational prayer. This service is blessed by the extraordinary Monroe First Chancel Choir. The Chancel Choir is accompanied by our accomplished organist, Janet Clark, as well as other talented musicians. Our music ministry is coordinated and led by Music Minister, Rev. Josef Buffaloe. From your favorite hymns to the powerful classics of the Christian Church, from handbell choirs to gifted soloists and quartets, and our various Children’s Choirs, you are sure to be musically blessed and spiritually uplifted by our Music Ministry. Rev. John Purrington brings an inspirational, scriptural based and focused message from the Word of God each Sunday. Come and receive a life-giving touch from God’s Holy Spirit to carry you out into the world to begin your week renewed and refreshed!

We encourage you to arrive approximately 15 minutes prior to worship on your first visit. We would LOVE to meet you! Staff and pastors will be at each door to greet you, get to know you and answer any question you may have.

Again, we are thrilled that you are interested in visiting with us! We hope you will take a moment and complete our online Connect Card prior to your visit so we can provide any additional information we may have failed to share.
