The Sacrament of Holy Communion
Communion is a special time for First Church. It is normally held at both services the first Sunday of each month.
Special observances of Holy communion are announced.

The Sacrament of Baptism
United Methodists believe in the baptism of infants as well as adults.  It is the sacrament through which we are initiated into the Body of Christ, the Church.  It is therefore observed in the context of worship and may be scheduled on any Sunday except communion Days, through the Church Office.  Parents are asked to meet with the pastor prior to the sacrament.

Weddings
Weddings are arranged through the Church Office.  Pastors expect to counsel with persons seeking to be married at First Church.

Funerals
The death of a loved one is a tender time for families.  Church members and their families are encouraged to have the service of resurrection in the Sanctuary.  Arrangements are made through the Church Office and with one or more of the pastors.

Special Worship Services
From time to time special services will be announced.  It has become traditional to have special services on Ash Wednesday,  Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, and Christmas Eve.
