Welcome to the web site of West Point First United Methodist Church in West Point, GA. We hope you’ll take a few minutes to scroll through the site and learn a little about us, our worship services, our programs and our outreach.

Our once bustling community has gone through some hard times in recent years. The textile industry, upon which we depended for most of our jobs, has been in decline since the 1980’s. Today, most of the area mills are closed and nearly all textile jobs are gone. During the 1990’s, it appeared that telecommunications—the dot com revolution—would take the place of textiles and restore us to economic health. Unfortunately, that didn’t happen. Now, however, a really exciting future truly seems to lie in store for us as Kia Automotive is  producing automobiles in their first North American  assembly plant right here in our town! Between Kia and its suppliers, our area will gain several thousand jobs and thousands of new residents. It is a very exciting and challenging time for our community.

Likewise, we at First United Methodist are already looking ahead and planning for what all this will mean for us. We invite you to join us as we look to the future and explore creative ways to spread the good news of Jesus Christ to all who hunger to hear it. Our planning committees are wide open for suggestions, ideas, dreams and visions and we would love to hear yours.

You’re invited to come to Worship, Family Night Supper, Bible Study, Sunday School and other small group activities and get to know us. Together, we can grow in the love of Jesus and share that love with a world that needs love more than ever. We look forward to meeting you at 306 East 7th Street—our little corner of the church universal of Jesus Christ.
