God's Story of Love

Is Still Unfolding 


Welcome to First United Methodist Church of Austin, an inclusive faith community of Christian believers in the heart of downtown at the corner of 12th Street and Lavaca. We may be older than the state of Texas, but God’s story is still unfolding in and through this community of faith. 

Join us as we blend ancient worship practices and progressive theology to build a community where all people are invited to know God’s love and sent to join God in transforming the world.

Leading people into a growing relationship with Jesus Christ by fostering authentic worship, building meaningful community, and equipping believers to serve others.
