Welcome to First United Methodist Church of Watauga. Hopefully our website allows you to gain insight into our faith community. Our mission is to make disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world. Our vision is to worship God, learn the Scriptures, and live them in the world.

If you have a love for Christ already or just want to get to know Jesus and God's promises, then this just might be the home that you want to make your own. We are a congregation deeply devoted to Christian faith and practice, but we welcome believers, seekers, doubters, and skeptics.

We believe we are responsible for each other, for care and concern for all our people, and those in the larger community and world around us. Our passion is creating disciples who love the Lord Jesus, and those disciples are very diverse but united. 

We welcome you whether you dress casually (as most of us do) or if you dress in a suit and tie or dress. We welcome you if you have a paycheck with 6 figures, or a Social Security check with 3 digits. We welcome you regardless of your race, age, ethnicity, gender, or orientation. This church is a safe space for ALL.   

Consider making First United Methodist Church of Watauga your spiritual home for Christian growth and renewal for the whole family. It's also a place where you can make a difference in our community. 

We look forward to meeting you and sharing with you this journey of faith and all the blessings that come along the way.

Keep the Faith and Love Always,
Sheila
