You are Welcome Here!
We want to personally welcome you to First United Methodist Church! FUMC Killeen is a United Methodist Community of faith, located in Central Texas, near Fort Cavazos.
We take a “grace-based” approach to reaching those who like to ask questions, are a bit skeptical of easy answers, and are open to the journey of discovering truth.
We invite you to be our guest on Sunday morning and join us for some great music, relevant preaching, and meaningful fellowship that just might be the best hour of your week.
FUMC Killeen has a four-fold focus:
- To nurture people in faith through small group interaction.
- To relieve suffering through outreach to our community and the world.
- To witness to our faith through our words and actions.
- To offer meaningful and passionate worship.
If you are not involved in an area church–maybe you’ve even been turned off by churches or Christians in the past–we hope you will consider being our guest. You may just find this church is right for you.
