What’s Happening?

There is a lot going on at this church- check out some of the things coming up!


Chrismons in July (and beyond!)

Did you know that the ornaments that grace the Decatur First tree during Advent and Christmas are called "Chrismons" and they were made by members of the church? This summer the Connect and Worship Teams are working together to mend and repair our Chrismons, and to make new ones! If you are a cross-stitcher, beader, embroiderer, or seamstress who could sew up a finished project, or are otherwise a creative, crafty person, reach out to Emilie Markert (emiliemarkert@gmail.com) or Ruth Brown (rcbrownmd@aol.com) to get involved. 


Friends and Family Choir

All singers are invited to a "y'all come" choir. Please meet on the main floor of the Sanctuary at 10:30am to learn an easy anthem for worship. Singers are invited to sit in the congregation and approach the risers/main floor during the service. Older children (with an adult) and youth are welcome too!


Prayer Bead Workshop

You’re invited to a Prayer Bead Workshop with author and spiritual director Kristen Vincent.  We will learn about prayer beads, an ancient tool for practicing prayer and meditation, and make our own beads to use at home. We will gather in the DFUMC Fellowship Hall on August 17 from 10 - 12pm.  Cost is $10 to cover supplies. Contact Janice Yates (jyates@decaturfirst.org) with questions.


Blood Drive

Decatur First will host a Blood Drive on Sunday, August 11 from 8am-1pm in the Fellowship Hall through the Red Cross. For more information or to volunteer, contact Julie Martinez at martinezjw@comcast.net.


CPR Training

Please join us for CPR training on July 31st, 2024 at 8:45am  in the fellowship hall. This is an important certification for all of our church staff, preschool staff and volunteers to have.
