In His Care, Pastor Jack Tilk.
The purpose of Madison First Methodist Church is to make
Disciples of Jesus Christ who then make Disciples of Jesus Christ. We
exist to help people meet Jesus, know Jesus, and serve Jesus.
Vision Statement:
Madison First Methodist Church fulfills the need for a safe place
to consider and respond to the Gospel Message. We insure that all those
we encounter experience the warm and helpful support they need as they
walk life's journey. We commit ourselves to living the Biblical model of
the church.
We stand on the following values:
We obey the Great Commandment by loving God first, then loving each other after the example of Christ's love for us. (Matthew 22: 37-39).
We fulfill the Great Commission as we make disciples, baptizing them and helping them grow in obedience to Christ. (Matthew 28: 19-20).
We are convinced that what matters to God also matters to us. We believe that no Church can stand still. Its relationship with God is a journey that must move forward or die. We follow the example of Jesus, serving people as we promote justice and fulfill their physical and spiritual needs. We stand firmly on our heritage as a Methodist which is grounded in the primacy of Scripture as informed by Christian tradition, enlivened in experience, and tested by reason. Christ centered worship, prayer, giving, and service represent natural responses to a meaningful relationship with our living Savior.

OUR SPECIAL $1.00: Please remember to bring your $1.00 to the altar each week to help those in need. The Church and the Community Thanks You! (If you do not feel comfortable coming to public worship, you can mail in a donation and put in the memo for the Dot Davis Fund, or to the Altar Fund.) Funds collected help the local needy.
TITHES-OFFERINGS-DONATIONS: We don't pass the collection plate during service; there is a box for tithes and offerings in the sanctuary before and during service. Optionally, you may mail your tithes and offerings to the church or come by the church office. You may also set up automatic payments for your tithes and donations by calling your local bank to have a check mailed to the church. If you have any questions, give the church office a call.

MISSION MOMENT: If you are currently involved in a mission project, or are organizing an upcoming project, I would like to hear from you! A "Mission Moment" will be added periodically over the year to our church service.

The purpose is to inform the congregation of details concerning mission activities and to invite members to participate in those activities. If you would like to provide a Mission Moment, or know someone who may, please e-mail me back and I will get you on the list. <juliemaultsby@gmail.com> Yours in Christ, Julie Maultsby
