“We’ve never been part of a church that’s just getting started, so this is all new territory for us. The bottom line is, it’s AWESOME! It’s incredible to see God at work, bringing people together and making the pieces fall into place. For the first time in years, we are truly excited about being in a Sunday morning service. We haven’t worshipped and learned like we are now in quite some time.”
“ I first came to church when visiting my sister. For me, church is an oasis where I can be refreshed with living water. It is a privilege to be part of something great! Overwhelmed by the gift of salvation I have found in Jesus, I have a heart for authentic worship, are passionate about the local church, and are on mission to see God’s kingdom established across the earth. A church that loves God.”
"What drew me to church were the strong family relationships. I grew up in church all my life but did not know Christ Himself. He was so misrepresented in the religious ‘Christianity’ I knew. When I came to church I met genuine people who loved God and loved each other. I was loved on by people who made me feel that it was okay to be not okay sometimes. I didn’t have to put on a smile."

Need Prayer? We Believe in the Power of Prayer—Together
“For where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them.” – Matthew 18:20
Prayer is powerful—and even more so when we come together in faith. Whether you’re facing a challenge, seeking guidance, or simply need someone to stand with you, you don’t have to carry it alone.
Our prayer team is here and ready to lift up your needs before God. No request is too big or too small. When you share your prayer, you’re not just sending us a message — you’re inviting your church family to believe with you, hope with you, and pray with you.
Let’s stand in faith together.

Everyone Has a Story—We’d Love to Hear Yours
Here at First United Methodist Church of Homestead, we believe that every story matters—because every life matters to God. The beauty of the gospel is that no matter where you’ve been or what you’ve walked through, Jesus meets you there, redeems your story, and offers a new beginning.
That’s why we can’t stop sharing what we’ve seen and heard. “As for us, we cannot help speaking about what we have seen and heard.” —Acts 4:20
Your story is powerful. It could be the very encouragement someone else needs.
We invite you to share your story with us—because God is still writing it.
What We Do
Passion for Change
Connecting with Faith, Family, and Community
At First United Methodist Church of Homestead, we believe in the power of connection – with God, with one another, and with our community. Whether through uplifting church services, engaging school events, or community activities hosted at our church, there are countless opportunities to build meaningful relationships and make a positive impact. Our church is a welcoming place where people of all ages and backgrounds can come together to worship, learn, and serve. We invite you to connect with us through these diverse events and help us strengthen our shared mission of faith, service, and love in the Homestead community.
For the Community, With the Community
At First United Methodist Church of Homestead, we believe that church doesn’t stop at the doors of the building. We’re called to be the hands and feet of Jesus—serving, loving, and standing alongside our neighbors. That’s why we’re shifting our focus to not just be in the community, but to truly work with the community, building relationships, meeting needs, and growing together.
“Let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth.” —1 John 3:18
We’re here to listen, to serve, and to walk with you. Together, we can make a lasting impact—one act of love at a time.
