First UMC Frankfort

There’s a place for you here.

At First United Methodist Church of Frankfort, there are lots of ways to find your place. On Sunday mornings, we worship together in two different spaces and styles. During the week, our building becomes a place for music, children and youth, learning, conversation, creativity, service, and community.

Whether you've been part of First UMC for years, you're new to church, or you're simply curious, come as you are.

A Ministry of First United Methodist Church

God Answers Prayer Through Compassionate People (GAP)

God Answers Prayer Through Compassionate People (GAP) is our ministry with people in our community who are unhoused. Through friendship, practical support, and connections with other local organizations, we walk alongside our neighbors through difficult seasons of life.

Relationships matter.

GAP is about more than meeting immediate needs. It is about showing up, building trust, and walking alongside our neighbors.

Music

Come experience music.

Music is part of who we are. From worship and community music events and gatherings, there is always room for another voice, another instrument, or another person who simply wants to listen.

We want children and youth to know they are loved, capable, curious, and an important part of this community.

We make room for questions, wonder, creativity, friendship, faith, and fun.

Everyone belongs.

Our children and youth are not just the future of our church. They are part of our community right now.
